Topic #: 1

Which of the following statements are correct?

1. A reliance upon conditional probabilities and a-priori views of probabilities is called the 'frequentist' view

2. Knightian uncertainty refers to things that might happen but for which probabilities cannot be evaluated

3. Risk mitigation and risk elimination are approaches to reacting to identified risks

4. Confidence accounting is a reference to the accounting frauds that were seen in the past decade as a reflection of failed governance processes

C1 and 4

DAll of the above

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The change in the price of a security that follows a Weiner process is determined by its standard deviation and expected return. To get the price itself, we need to add this change in price to the current price. Therefore the future price in a Weiner process is determined by all three of current price, expected return and standard deviation.

Wait, can we really not evaluate probabilities for Knightian uncertainty?

I'm a bit confused about confidence accounting; I thought it was more about financial reporting than just fraud, so I'm not sure about statement 4.

I practiced a question similar to this about risk management, and I think statement 3 makes sense since mitigation and elimination are both strategies.

I think the key here is that Acme wants the "least amount of IT equipment onsite." That points to a cloud-based or distributed network services provider solution.
