QUESTION 1 I drive to UB and am currently looking for a parking spot so I can walk to Jacob's. If I turn into a parking lot to look for a spot to park in that specific lot, the process of looking for a spot takes 1 minute of time whether I find a spot or not (so if I have to check two lots to find a spot, it takes me 2 minutes to find a spot total). Parking lot A is closer to Jacobs. If I get a spot here, it takes me 4 minute to walk into my class at the business school, however there is only a 30% chance I'll find a spot if I look. Parking lot B is an 8-minute walk. If I pull in to look for a spot, there is a 100% chance I will find a spot. Assume that it does you no good to keep looping through a full parking lot (ie. if it is full, it stays full). Which strategy to find a parking spot is best for me (ie. which order should I check the parking lots for spots to park), if I am risk-neutral, and simply want to have the earliest expected arrival time to Jacob’s as possible? (Another way to say this is we want the smallest expected value of time spent getting to Jacob’s). Now, assume I am risk averse (let’s say that in this second case, my class starts in 10 minutes, and there is a large decrease in my utility if I am late for class). Is the best strategy the same as when I am risk-neutral, or has it changed?

Daniel owns 100 shares of abc corporation's common stock. abc uses the fair value option, and recent declines in the firm's credit rating have caused the value of the firm's outstanding bonds payable to drop by 10%. daniel feels this is good news, but he wants to know what you think about the situation. which of the following represents your best response? a : "this situation may be positive for you in that the change in abc's credit standing indicates that the value of the firm's assets is likely increasing. however, the drop in bond value may negate any positive effects on your bottom line, because it means your claim on the firm's assets is simultaneously decreasing." b : "actually, this is bad news all around. the drop in the value of abc's bonds payable means shareholders' claims on the firm's assets have decreased. moreover, abc's declining credit rating means that the firm's assets are probably also dropping in value, thus magnifying your losses even more." c : "on the surface, this seems like good news because it means your claim on the firm's assets has increased. however, the drop in creditworthiness may also indicate that abc's assets are declining in value, thus offsetting any gains associated with the drop in bonds payable." d : "you're right! this is good news because it means that abc's debtholders have a decreased claim on the firm's assets. as a result, the firm's existing shareholders"like you"have seen their claim on the firm's assets increase."
