Portfolio 2 Method: Once‚ the simple returns have been calculated for all the stocks of choice in the portfolio; average returns should also be computed. It is essential to compute the covariance matrix for the selected stocks. This matrix can be used to determine the relatively consider the amounts of different assets that one should choose to hold in a context of diversification. The Matrix can be evaluated using MMULT and TRANSPOSE functions in excel. Furthermore‚ using known risk-free rate we

Indeed‚ these courses were for the most parts very abstract and mostly used examples from fields traditionally associated with mathematics. Everything changed when I read a paper on “Mathematical Modelling of Zombies” about a model for an infection that transform people into zombies. Aside from the obvious novelty of the study‚ I was intrigued by the application of mathematics to immunology and biology‚ where an advanced math background is not the

Modelling Koala Populations and Management Strategies In Australia we have many species that we consider pests. Most people don’t consider the koala (Phascolarctus cinereus) to be one of them. Unfortunately in the late 1800’s and the early 1900’s millions of koalas were killed for their thick reddish brown to grey fur making them extinct in the state of South Australia and endangered across the rest of the country. In a bid to reverse this disturbing trend and conserve this clearly vulnerable

Modelling of Noise in PLL’s Using Verilog-AMS Intoduction Hardware description languages (HDLs) exist to describe hardware. In this they differ from traditional programming languages‚ which generally exist to describe algorithms. To properly describe hardware‚ one must be able to describe both the behaviour of the individual components as well as how they are interconnected. Hardware description languages have two primary applications: simulation and synthesis. With simulation
