Chapter 7.4, Problem 1CYU
Life Insurance A 74-year-old man pays $1000 for a one-year life insurance policy, which pays $20,000 in the event that he dies during the next year. According to life insurance tables, the probability of a 74-year-old man living one additional year is .95. Write down the probability distribution for the possible financial outcome, and determine its expected value.

Another common model is the CIR model, which solves the SDE: dX₁ = (a = X₁) dt + σ √X+dWt, - under the condition Xoxo. We cannot solve this SDE explicitly. = (a) Use the Brownian trajectory simulated in part (a) of Problem 1, and the Euler scheme to simulate a trajectory of the CIR process. On a graph, represent both the trajectory of the OU process and the trajectory of the CIR process for the same Brownian path. (b) Repeat the simulation of the CIR process above M times (M large), for a large value of T, and use the result to estimate the long-term expectation and variance of the CIR process. How do they compare to the ones of the OU process? Numerical application: T = 10, N = 500, a = 0.04, x0 = 0.05, σ = 0.01, M = 1000. 1 (c) If you use larger values than above for the parameters, such as the ones in Problem 1, you may encounter errors when implementing the Euler scheme for CIR.

- 3. Let {X} be an autoregressive process of order one, usually written as AR(1). (a) Write down an equation defining X₁ in terms of an autoregression coefficient a and a white noise process {} with variance σ². Explain what the phrase "{} is a white noise process with variance o?" means. (b) Derive expressions for the variance 70 and the autocorrelation function Pk, k 0,1,. of the {X} in terms of o2 and a. Use these expressions to suggest an estimate of a in terms of the sample autocor- relations {k}. (c) Suppose that only every second value of X is observed, resulting in a time series Y X2, t = 1, 2,.... Show that {Y} forms an AR(1) process. Find its autoregression coefficient, say d', and the variance of the underlying white noise process, in terms of a and o². (d) Given a time series data set X1, ..., X256 with sample mean = 9.23 and sample autocorrelations ₁ = -0.6, 2 = 0.36, 3 = -0.22, p = 0.13, 5 = -0.08, estimate the autoregression coefficients a and a' of {X} and {Y}.arrow_forward#8 (a) Find the equation of the tangent line to y = √x+3 at x=6 (b) Find the differential dy at y = √x +3 and evaluate it for x=6 and dx = 0.3arrow_forwardRefer to page 96 for a problem involving the heat equation. Solve the PDE using the method of separation of variables. Derive the solution step-by-step, including the boundary conditions. Instructions: Stick to solving the heat equation. Show all intermediate steps, including separation of variables, solving for eigenvalues, and constructing the solution. Irrelevant explanations are not allowed.
