A two-year financial instrument produces $129 in year t = 1 and $85 in year t = 2. Find the weight corresponding to t = 1, w1, in the definition of duration as a weighted average of the times at which the cash flows occur: D = 1*w1 + 2*w2. Assume the discount rate is 5% p.a
PV of CF1 = 128/1.05^1=121.9048
PV of CF2= 85/1.05^2 = 77.0975
Total = 199
W1= 121.9048/199 = 0.61258
Hence W1=0.61258

You are offered an asset with the following cash flows: T 1 ... t-1 t t+1 t+2 ... Forever Cash Flow 0 ... 0 37 37x(1+g) 37x(1+g)x(1+g) ... That is, the asset only starts paying in year t and from there on cash flows grow in perpetuity at an annual growth rate given by g. Compute the value of the asset if t = 11 and g = 2% per year. Assume that the discount rate is 7% per year...

Question 1: Cost Minimization and Cost Curves Suppose that Jennifer produces goody by using input x and x2. The production function which Jennifer faces is: The cost for every unit of Xi is wi and the cost for every unit of x2 is w2. There is a fixed cost component F, which also forms a part of her total cost. (a) Write down the cost minimization problem. Solve this problem and express X1/X2 as a function of w2/wi.
