Assume that if one loan defaults, the other does not. Assume that in the event of default, the loan leads to a loss that can take any value between $0 and $1 million with equal probability, i.e., the probability that the loss is higher than $x million is 1-x. If a loan does not default, it yields a profit equal to $0.02 million. a) Compute the 1-year 99% Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) of a single loan. b) Compute the 1-year 99% VaR and ES for the portfolio of both loans. c) Does the VaR and the ES satisfy the subadditivity property in this case?arrow_forwardPlease answer the following showing detailed working: Bruce & Co. expects its EBIT to be $100,000 every year forever.
