2) [20 points] A European call option and a European put option on a stock both have a strike price of $40 and an expiration date in 6 months. The European call option sells for $12 and the European put option sells for $10. The risk-free interest rate is 5% per year (with continuous compounding), the current stock price is $35, and a $1 dividend is expected in two months. Find an arbitrage opportunity. To receive full credit, explain what you would do at time $t = 0$ and why the strategy that you propose is indeed an arbitrage opportunity.

Calculate a deadweight loss after the government imposed the tax. Hint: Try (1/2)*(equilibrium quantity after tax - equilibrium quantity before tax)*(price buyers pay at equilibrium after tax - price sellers receive at equilibrium after tax) Enter just the value.

PRACTICE FROM IN-LAB TEST: Define a function named variousChanges(...) which receives one string (origst) (with letters, digits, or special characters), possibly empty, and returns a new string containing the following: a) In those positions where the original string has an even digit, the corresponding character in the new (returned) string should have the string digit '0'. b) In those positions where the original string has a vowel letter (upper or lower case), the new (returned) string should have the letter 'V'. Note that the vowels are: 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'. c) Any other position in the new (returned) string should have a star ('*'). d) At the end of the new string, there should be a number attached, which is the number of uppercase letters in the original string. For example, variousChanges("A>e>X34S") should return the string "V*V***0*3" because: 'A' (in position 0) and 'e' (in position 2) are vowels — so the new string has a 'V' in those positions. '4' (in position 6) is an even digit — so the new string has a '0' in that position. All other positions have '*' in the new string. 'A', 'X', and 'S' are three uppercase letters in the original string — so the new string has a 3 at the end. As an example, the following code fragment: print(variousChanges("A>e>X34S")) should produce the output: V*V***0*3

Question 2 (7 points): Consider the following snippet of coded logic: pid = fork() /* We are calling system call fork(). The value returned by fork() is stored in variable pid. */ if (pid == 0) { /* If the value of variable pid is equal to 0, then the next 2 instructions will be executed. */ fork() /* Here we are calling system call fork() again. */ thread_create( . . .) /* Here we are calling a function that creates a thread, which in turn simply calculates and displays the first 10 Fibonacci numbers. */ } fork() /* Here we are calling system call fork() again. */ a) How many processes are created, including the original process? b) How many times is the thread_create() function invoked? Answer: Question 3 (6 points): Describe the circumstances under which it is advisable to use each of the following synchronization tools.
