Finance 461 final hints

The final will be given at 1:10 on Saturday in Murphy 103.

It will be mainly multiple choice but I reserve the right to put on certain essay, problems, and true-false questions as well.

It is cumulative.  (roughly 40-50% will be new stuff and 50-60% old stuff) Therefore it will cover everything we covered. but I would pay particular attention to chapters 1-5, 7,8,11, 13, and 18-24.  I think they made up the meat of the class.

It will not have that much on international asset pricing but will have quite a bit on international diversification.

It does cover the derivatives that we did in class.  You should be able to create a hedge for various exposures.

I would make sure to look over chapter 3 again.

It will be challenging but probably more in line with the second test (i.e. easier than test 1).

you are allowed a calculator (not a palm top computer) and a "cheat sheet."

good luck!
