1.

Future value of annuity=annuity[(1+rate)^time period-1]/rate

1,000,000=annuity*[(1.05)^10-1]/0.05

1,000,000=annuity*12.57789254

Annuity=1,000,000/12.57789254

=$79504.57(approx)

Stock A          
Scenario Probability Return% =rate of return% * probability Actual return -expected return(A)% (A)^2* probability
Recession 0.5 -15 -7.5 -35.5 0.0630125
Normal 0.5 20 10 -0.5 0.0000125
Boom 0.3 60 18 39.5 0.0468075
           
  Expected return %= sum of weighted return = 20.5 Sum=Variance Stock A= 0.10983
      Standard deviation of Stock A% =(Variance)^(1/2) 33.14
           
Stock B          
Scenario Probability Return% =rate of return% * probability Actual return -expected return(A)% (B)^2* probability
Recession 0.5 20 10 -17 0.01445
Normal 0.5 30 15 -7 0.00245
Boom 0.3 40 12 3 0.00027
           
  Expected return %= sum of weighted return = 37 Sum=Variance Stock B= 0.01717
      Standard deviation of Stock B% =(Variance)^(1/2) 13.1
