Exploring a regression model for values of the independent variable that have not been observed is most accurately described as…
Consider the following distribution data for a random variable X: What is the mean and variance of X?
An underlying asset price is at 100, its annual volatility is 25% and the risk free interest rate is 5%. A European call option has a strike of 85 and a maturity of 40 days. Its Black-Scholes price is 15.52. The options sensitivities are: delta = 0.98; gamma = 0.006 and vega = 1.55. What is the delta-gamma-vega approximation to the new option price when the underlying asset price changes to 105 and the volatility changes to 28%?
Which of the following statements concerning class intervals used for grouping of data is correct?
When grouping data, attention must be paid to the following with regards to class intervals:
1. Class intervals should not overlap
2. Class intervals should be of equal size unless there is a specific need to highlight data within a specific subgroup
3. The class intervals should be large enough so that they not obscure interesting variation within the group
I have $5m to invest in two stocks: 75% of my capital is invested in stock 1 which has price 100 and the rest is invested in stock 2, which has price 125. If the price of stock 1 falls to 90 and the price of stock 2 rises to 150, what is the return on my portfolio?
Suppose we perform a principle component analysis of the correlation matrix of the returns of 13 yields along the yield curve. The largest eigenvalue of the correlation matrix is 9.8. What percentage of return volatility is explained by the first component? (You may use the fact that the sum of the diagonal elements of a square matrix is always equal to the sum of its eigenvalues.)
A simple linear regression is based on 100 data points. The total sum of squares is 1.5 and the correlation between the dependent and explanatory variables is 0.5. What is the explained sum of squares?
When the errors in a linear regression show signs of positive autocorrelation, which of the statements below is true?
In a binomial tree lattice, at each step the underlying price can move up by a factor of u = 1.1 or down by a factor of . The continuously compounded risk free interest rate over each time step is 1% and there are no dividends paid on the underlying. The risk neutral probability for an up move is:
Which of the following statements is true for symmetric positive definite matrices?
A biased coin has a probability of getting heads equal to 0.3. If the coin is tossed 4 times, what is the probability of getting heads at least two times?
