Consider a $400 million pass-through MBS that has just been created (so the 'seasoning' of the pass-through is equal to 0). The underlying pool of mortgages each has a maturity of 20 years and an annual mortgage coupon rate of 6%. The pass-through rate of the mortgage pool is 5%. Assuming a prepayment multiplier of 100 PSA what is the total amount of interest paid to the pass-through investors

Q3. loral corporation manufactures parts for an aircraft company. it uses a computerized numerical controlled (cnc) machining center to produce a specific part that has a design (nominal) target of 1.275 inches with tolerances of ± 0.020 inch. the cnc process that manufactures these parts has a mean of 1.285 inches and a standard deviation of 0.005 inch. compute the process capability ratio and process capability index, and comment on the overall capability of the process to meet the design specifications.

Total marketing effort is a term used to describe the critical decision factors that affect demand: price, advertising, distribution, and product quality. define the variable x to represent total marketing effort. a typical model that is used to predict demand as a function of total marketing effort is based on the power function: d = axb suppose that a is a positive number. different model forms result from varying the constant b. sketch the graphs of this model for b = 0, b = 1, 0< b< 1, b< 0, and b> 1. (we encourage you to use excel to do this.) what does each model tell you about the relationship between demand and marketing effort? what assumptions are implied? are they reasonable? how would you go about selecting the appropriate model?
