- At Time 0, asset ABC is selling for $85 and XYZ is selling for $41. These assets' prices at Time 1 are given under two states of the economy (refer to Figure 1.1 below). Assume "short selling" is allowed. That is, you can borrow units of ABC and/or XYZ from your broker. Using the concept of "Arbitrage and the Law of One Price" discussed in class, show how you can make a riskless profit.
Figure 1.1
Time 0 Time 1
(1) State: GOOD
ABC=$100
XYZ=$ 50
ABC=$85
XYZ=$41
(2) State: BAD
ABC=$ 80
XYZ=$ 40
