Let A = \(\binom{Z}{3}\) denote the collection of all sets of exactly three distinct integers. Let B = N be the natural numbers. We define injective functions $f: A \leftrightarrow B: g$ as follows: \begin{itemize} \item $g(n) = \{n - 1, n, n + 1\}$ \item Assuming $a < b < c$ we define $f(\{a, b, c\})$ according to whichever rule applies. In all cases we first compute $m = 2^{|a|}3^{|b|}5^{|c|}.$ \begin{itemize} \item If $0 \le a, b, c$ then $f(\{a, b, c\}) = m.$ \item If $a < 0$ and $0 \le b, c$ then $f(\{a, b, c\}) = 7m.$ \item If $a < b < 0$ and $0 \le c$ then $f(\{a, b, c\}) = 11m.$ \item If $a < b < c < 0$ then $f(\{a, b, c\}) = 13m.$ \end{itemize} \end{itemize} Fully explain and determine each of the following: (SEE BOTH SIDES!)

Explain your answer by checking into and exhibiting all the ancestors of $\{n - 1, n, n + 1\}$.

Consider a position consisting of a $100,000 investment in asset A and a $200,000 investment in asset B. Assume that the daily volatilities of asset A is 1% and asset B is 2% and that the coefficient of correlation between their returns is 0.2. What is the weight of asset A in the portfolio? What is the weight of asset B in the portfolio? Using the weights in (a) and (b), Find the daily standard deviation of the portfolio? Find the 10-day standard deviation of the portfolio? Find the 10-day 99% value at risk for the portfolio? (Use 2.33 for 99%) Find the 10-day 97.5% value at risk for the portfolio? (Use 1.96 for 97.5%) Find the 10-day 95% value at risk for the portfolio? (Use 1.65 for 95%) What can you conclude from comparing your answers of (e), (f) and (g)? If we assume that asset A and B were perfectly correlated, find 10-day 99% value at risk and compare it with your answer in e) Using your answer in (i), by how much does diversification reduce value at risk?
