(1) There are two questions – 1 and 2 – in a problem set on introductory finance. Solutions are available as well. You are to understand the questions, the given info, and the solutions, and form similar solutions to the two problem sets. Since answers are already given, this should be an easier task. Questions may require equations/graphs, so some solutions are to be done neatly by hand. The solution content should be restricted to the shared text and not from elsewhere/advanced knowledge. 2 word docs are needed in response. This task should be fairly quick.
