Answer:

2.58%

Explanation:

Mathematically, the relationship between the different interest rates using the equation is shown below:

(1+S2)^2=(1+S1)^1*(1+2y1y)

The spot rate in year 2 is the same as the spot rate in year 1 multiplied by the 1-year forward rate beginning in year 2.

S2=2-year rate =2.34%

S1=1-year rate =2.10%

2y1y=one-year interest rate 2 years from now=the unknown

(1+2.34%)^2=(1+2.10%)^1*(1+2y1y)

(1+2y1y)=(1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1

2y1y)=(((1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1)-1

2y1y=1.025805642-1

2y1y= 2.58%

The formula shows that borrowing or lending for 2 years at 2.34% is the same as borrowing or lending at 2.10% in year and 2.58% forward rate in year 2

It is a binomial distribution with n = 150, p = 0.51

mean = np = 150 multiply with 0.51 = 76.5

SD= sqrt(np(1-p) )= 6.1225

Since np and n(1-p) > 5, we can assume the distribution is normal.

B) please see the attached file.

c)  It is a binomial distribution with n = 150, p = 0.02

mean = np = 150*0.02 = 3

SD= sqrt(np(1-p) )= 1.71464

Since np < 5, we cannot assume the distribution is normal.
