Answer:
236.23
Explanation:
The computation of X is shown below:-
As per the time-weighted method
The 6-month yield
= (40 ÷ 50) × (80 ÷ 60) × (157.50 ÷ 160) - 1
= 5%
Annual equivalent = (1.05)^2 - 1
= 10.25%
1 - year yield = (40 ÷ 50) × (80 ÷ 60) × (175 ÷ 160) × (X ÷ 250) - 1
= 0.1025
X(0.004667) = 1.1025
X = 236.23
Therefore on December 31st the value of account of X = 236.25
Answer:
a) attached below.
b) for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium
c) will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase
Explanation:
<u>a) 2 * 2 payoff matrix describing the decision faced by the athletes </u>
attached below
when both players take the drug the payoff for each player = $5000 - x
when neither player takes the drug the payoff for each player = $5000
When only one player takes the drug his payoff = $10000 - x
<u>b) If we consider the value of $x to be involved in the Nash equilibrium then </u>
; $5000 - $x > 0 becomes the best response
hence for $x < $5000 will cause taking the drug to be part of the Nash equilibrium
c) Lowering the negative effect of the drug ( i.e. when the value of x is reduced )
will make the athletes feel better because the value their payoff will increase
