Consider the proof below: Proposition: If m is an even integer, then 5m +4 is an even integer. Proof: We see that |5m+4=10n+4 = 2(5n+2). Therefore, 5m+4 is an even integer. **Note: you may assume the proof is valid, just poorly written. Based upon the Section 1.3 screencast and the reading assignment, select all writing guidelines that are missing in the proof. Proof begins by stating assumptions ✓ Proof has an invitational tone/uses collective pronouns Proof is written in complete sentences Each step is justified ☐ Proof has a clear conclusion
Note: The purpose of this problem below is to use computational techniques (Excelspreadsheet, Matlab, R, Python, etc.) and code the dynamic programming ideas seen inclass. Please provide the numerical answer to the questions as well as a sample of yourwork (spreadsheet, code file, etc.).We consider an N-period binomial model with the following properties: N = 60, thecurrent stock price is S0 = 1000; on each period, the stock price increases by 0.5% whenit moves up and decreases by 0.3% when it moves down. The annual interest rate on themoney market is 5%. (Notice that this model is a CRR model, which means that thebinomial tree is recombining.)(a) Find the price at time t0 = 0 of a (European) call option with strike price K = 1040and maturity T = 1 year.(b) Find the price at time t0 = 0 of a (European) put option with strike price K = 1040and maturity T = 1 year.(c) We consider now, that you are at time t5 (i.e. after 5 periods, which represents 1month later). Assume that the stock…
