Question 2 (30 points); Forward Prices via LoOP on NonDividend Paying Assets In this problem we applying our W5E1 material to evaluate a LoOP implied forward price for a hypohetical forward contract on Amazon stock. Note: Amazon has not in the past, nor plans, to pay out any dividends. The forward contract is for 100 shares of Amazon stock (contract unit = 100 ) and the forward's expiration is 01/24/2024 . Part A [5 points] Look up the price of I Amazon stock and report it below, along with the current date. Part B |10 points] Look up T-Bill quotes on Factset and find the T-Bill with the closest maturity to the forward's expiration. Repont the T-Bill's maturity and the corresponding mid-discount. Use this information to obtain T-Bill dollar price and the associated spot rate below. Part C [5 points] Use the information in pants A and B to obtain the Law of One Price implied forward price for the Amazon stock. Part D [5 points] Suppose in addition to the information provided, you learn that the expected return on Amazon will be 10% over the coming year. Assume this information becomes available to the whole market, but the market prices in Parts A and B do not change. Will this new information about the 10% return lead you to change your answer to Part C ? I.e,, should a forward price, according to LoOP, be higher for a stock that is expected to grow by such a large margin? Yes, no, or ambiguous. Provide a 1-3 sentence explanation. Part E. [10 points] Suppose you can trade this forward contract on Amazon (longor short-) at a forward price of $102 per share. Based on the information above, is there a way to make a riskless profit?

Question 2- NON-EXCLUDABLE PUBLIC GOOD You live in a community house of ten people. This problem is about how clean the house should or will be kept. 6 of your colleagues are low-demanders for cleanliness and each has a private marginal benefit from a unit of cleanliness which is approximated by: PMB = 0.9 0.04 Z (\$ per unit of cleanliness) where Z is the units of cleanliness. 4 of your colleagues (including you) are high-demanders for cleanliness and each has a private marginal benefit from a unit of cleanliness which is approximated by: PMB = 1.75 0.02 Z (\$ per unit of cleanliness). Cleanliness can only be obtained by having a cleaner. A cleaner produces 2 (units of cleanliness per hour) and charges 12 (\$ per hour). e) If cleaning is provided at the efficiect level and the cast is shared by the Benefit Principle, how much better off is each person? That is, the high and low demander. It may be helpful to graph thic. Q If cleaning is provided at the efficient level and the cost is shared equally, how much better off is each person? That is, the high and low demander. It may be helpful to graph this. Hint: There is no reason for PMBAPMC at the efficient level of cleaning. g) You have a ever-so- sightly higher PMA than your colleagues. A house meeting is held which decides that the cleaner must be hired privately, How dean will the house be kept and how many hours wil the cleaner work? PMB = 0.9 0.042 ( $ per unit of cleanliness) where Z is the units of cleanliness. 4 of your colleagues (including you) are high-demanders for cleanliness and each has a private marginal benefit from a unit of cleanliness which is approximated by: PMB = 1.75 0.02 Z (s per unit of cleanliness). Cleanliness can only be obtained by having a cleaner. A deaner produces 2 (units of cleanliness per hour) and charges 12 (S per hour). a) is house cleanliness a public or private good? b) What would you mean if you said that your private marginal benefit was 1 is per unit of cleanliness)? c) From an efficiency viewpoint, how many hours should the cleaser be hired? d) If cleaning is provided at the efticient level and the cost is shared by the Benefit Principle, how much does each person pay?
