A desk is short a positive residual and books one unit of carry each day equal to that day's expected residual. If X_(t+1) = 3/4 X_t + epsilon_(t+1) with zero-mean shocks and X_0 = 12 bp, what is the total expected carry over the next 3 days?

For a GARCH(1,1) with $\omega=0.2$, $\alpha=0.1$, $\beta=0.8$, the one-step-ahead conditional variance is $h_{t+1}=3$. Using the closed form $E_t[h_{t+k}]=\bar h+(\alpha+\beta)^{\,k-1}(h_{t+1}-\bar h)$, compute the 5-step-ahead forecast $E_t[h_{t+5}]$ as a decimal.

A residual spread follows X_(t+1) = 0.8 X_t + epsilon_(t+1) with zero-mean shocks. In trading days, what is the half-life of mean reversion, i.e. the horizon h at which the expected residual has decayed to half its current value?

A stationary mean-reverting spread obeys X_(t+1) = 1/2 X_t + epsilon_(t+1), where Var(epsilon_(t+1)) = 4. Starting from the current level, what fraction of the same-horizon random-walk forecast-error variance does the 4-step mean-reverting forecast-error variance represent?
