Q2. What is the optimal solution and what is the value of the objective function? Show the relevant portion of the Solver’s output. Fully interpret the results. Q3. What are the objective coefficient ranges for the four stocks? Show the relevant portion of the Solver’s output. Fully interpret these ranges. Q4. Suppose the investor decides that the annual rate of return no longer has to be at least 9% and agrees to at minimum level of 8%. What does the shadow price associated with this constraint indicate about a possible change in total risk that could occur from this lower rate of return? Show the relevant portion of the Solver’s output. Fully interpret the results.Briefly explain these terms:a. Basic variableb. Shadow pricec. Range of feasibilityd. Range of optimalityWhich of the following is true? a)The maximin criterion is an approach in Optimization under uncertainty which finds a solution that has the best possible payoff. b)The maximin criterion is an approach in Optimization under uncertainty which finds a solution with the best worst possible payoff. c)A risk profile represents the probability distribution of uncertain inputs. d)Decision tree is a method to solve any optimization problem when the outcomes are subject to uncertainty.

Each has two potential uses for their land, the present values of each of which depend on the use adopted by the other, as summarized in the table. All the values in the table are known to both parties. Dionne Rental housing Bee keeping Kenya Apple growing A: $200 B: $700 A: $400 B: $650 Pig farming A: $450 B: $400 A: $450 B: $500 a. What is the efficient outcome? b. If there are negotiation costs of $150, what activities will the two pursue on their land? c. If there are no negotiation costs and the two negotiate, what activities will the two pursue on their land? How might a benevolent planner help reduce the costs of negotiating to encourage the optimal combination of land uses?Innis Investments manages funds for a number of companies and wealthy clients. The investment strategy is tailored to each client's needs. For a new client, Innis has been authorized to invest up to $1.2 million in two investment funds: a stock fund and a money market fund. Each unit of the stock fund costs $50 and provides an annual rate of return of 10%; each unit of the money market fund costs $100 and provides an annual rate of return of 4%. The client wants to minimize risk subject to the requirement that the annual income from the investment be at least $60,000. According to Innis' risk measurement system, each unit invested in the stock fund has a risk index of 8, and each unit invested in the money market fund has a risk index of 3. The higher risk index associated with the stock fund simply indicates that it is the riskier investment. Innis's client also specified that at least $300,000 be invested in the money market fund. Refer to the computer solution shown below. Optimal…
