The spot exchange rate is $1.50/£. In the next period, the pound can increase in dollar value to $2.25/£ or fall to $1.00/£. The interest rate in dollars is i$ = 9.20%; the interest rate in pounds is i£ = 4.00%. You are [longshort] in the underlying asset of £120,000. The money market hedging strategy is [moneymarket] The forward market hedge is [fwdhedge]

The current stock price is $10 per share. The strike price is $9 per share. The option is written on 100 shares. The one-period risk-free rate is 0%.

Extra credit – 1 pt Professor Gardner found that figure (the one with Cell #1 and Cell #2) on the internet, and though it’s nice, there is a mistake on it. Can you spot it? What is the mistake in this picture? (More than one possible answer with good justification)

Determine the total amount of fluid volume to be replaced in the first 24 hours for the patient with burns. This amount should include the first 8 hours and the next 16 hours, the milliliters per hour, and the drops per minute for the IV solution. Use the Parkland formula. In addition, use the post 24-hour formula for fluid replacement, based on urinary output, and determine the hourly volume of fluid replacement for hours 25 through 48 after burn. Round all answers to the nearest whole number. Parkland formula: 4 mL x kg (do not round) x % body surface area (BSA) burn Post 24-hour formula based on urinary output: 1 mL x kg (do not round) x % BSA burn Prescription: Patient weight: 66 lb; % BSA burned: 27% (Round all answers to the nearest whole number) A. The 24-hour total of LR solution IV fluid to be replaced is [total1] mL. B. The 8-hour total of LR solution IV fluid to be replaced is [total2] mL. C. The milliliters per hour of the 8-hour LR solution IV fluid replacement is [total3] mL/hr. D. The 16-hour total of LR solution IV fluid to be replaced is [total4] mL. E. The milliliters per hour of the 16-hour of LR solution IV fluid replacement is [total5] mL/hr. F. The post 24-hour total of D5W IV fluid replacement is [total6] mL/hr.
