ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.3 : (a) In the M / M / 1 queue that happens with randomness, let State 0 = the queue and server are empty, State 1 = the server is in use and the queue is empty, State 2 = the server is in use and 1 is in the queue, State 3 = the server is in use and 2 in the queue. Let P (0) = probability of State 0, P (1) = probability of State 1, P (2) = probability of State 2, P (3) = probability of State 3 and so on. If c = constant, P (1) = c P (0), P (2) = c [ c P (0) ], P (3) = c { c [ c P (0) ] }, write an equation that involves P (N), P (N + 1) and c. (b) Let L = market price of risk, r = riskless rate, m = expected return, s = volatility. Given that L = (m - r) / s related to oil prices, expected return = 12 %, s = 20 %, riskless rate = 8 %, calculate the market price of risk.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.3 : (a) P (1) = c P (0), P (2) = c [ c P (0) ] = c P (1), P (3) = c { c [ c P (0) ] } = c P (2). Then P (N + 1) = c P (N). (b) Let m = 12 %, r = 8 %, s = 20 %, then L = (m - r) / s = (12 - 8) / 20 = 4 / 20 = 1 / 5.
