Suppose initially that two assets, A and B, will each make a single guaranteed payment of $100 in one year. But asset A has a current price of $80 while asset B has a current price of $90. Instructions: Round your answers to 2 decimal places. a. What are the rates of return of assets A and B at their current prices? Return on asset A= percent Return on asset B = percent Given these rates of return, which asset should investors buy and which asset should they sell? Buy asset A and sell asset B b. Assume that arbitrage continues until A and B have the same expected rate of return. When arbitrage ends, will A and B have the same price? Yes, they will have the same price. Next, consider another pair of assets, C and D. Asset C will make a single payment of $150 in one year, while D will make a single payment of $200 in one year. Assume that the current price of C is $120 and that the current price of D is $180. c. What are the rates of return of assets C and D at their current prices? Return on asset C = percent Return on asset D = percent Given these rates of return, which asset should investors buy and which asset should they sell? Buy asset C and sell asset D d. Assume that arbitrage continues until C and D have the same expected rate of return. When arbitrage ends, will C and D have the same price? Yes, they will have the same price. Compare your answers to questions a through d before answering question e. e. We know that arbitrage will equalize rates of return. Does it also guarantee to equalize prices?
