2. Sam and Deb have a weekly net income of $1500. They have a pet dog. Their monthly
expenses, not related to housing, are $2875. They have savings of $32 000.
They are considering two housing options:
Option 1: Renting a 2-bedroom condo for $1650 a month, plus utilities averaging $210 a
month
Option 2: Buying a 2-bedroom condo for a down payment of $24 500, bi-weekly mortgage
payments of $1100, and a monthly condo fee of $475
a)
Determine the monthly cost of each housing option. Factoring in other expenses not related
to housing, which one can Sam and Deb afford?
b) Suppose their dog falls ill and they have to pay $85 every week to cover veterinarian and
medical expenses. Calculate the additional monthly expenses. How much money would be
available for savings if they choose housing option 2?
I bought sparrows at 3 for a penny, turtle doves at 2 for a penny, anddoves at 2 pence each. If I spent 30 pence buying 30 birds and boughtat least one of each kind of bird, how many birds of each kind did I buy?(This is a problem from Fibonacci’s Liber Abaci, 1202.)

- 6 (Model Selection, Estimation and Prediction of GARCH) Consider the daily returns rt of General Electric Company stock (ticker: "GE") from "2021-01-01" to "2024-03-31", comprising a total of 813 daily returns. Using the "fGarch" package of R, outputs of fitting three GARCH models to the returns are given at the end of this question. Model 1 ARCH (1) with standard normal innovations; Model 2 Model 3 GARCH (1, 1) with Student-t innovations; GARCH (2, 2) with Student-t innovations; Based on the outputs, answer the following questions. (a) What can be inferred from the Standardized Residual Tests conducted on Model 1? (b) Which model do you recommend for prediction between Model 2 and Model 3? Why?
