Hello everyone!
I need some help to solve a system of two equations to find pbar and rho:
Eq1 = 600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.95,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) == 147400000;
Eq2 = 600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.99,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) == 293200000;
I tried the following code but it didnt work:
syms pbar rho
eqns = [600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.95,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) == 147400000,600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.99,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) == 293200000];
S = solve(eqns,[pbar,rho])
Thank you in advance!!!

Try numeric:
format long
S0 = [0.1, 0];
S = fsolve(@eqns,S0)
TestSolution = eqns(S) % Should be near zero for a good solution
format short
function Eq = eqns(x)
rho = x(1);
pbar = x(2);
Eq(1) = 600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.95,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) - 147400000;
Eq(2) = 600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.99,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) - 293200000;
end

The symbolic toolbox does not always work well with the stats toolbox. And stats is where normcdf and norminv come from.
So do it with mostly pencil and paper. Start with Eq1.
Eq1 = 600000*1000*normcdf((sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.95,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho),0,1) == 147400000;
Divide by those constants at the beginning, and take the inverse normcdf of both sides.
(sqrt(rho)*norminv(0.95,0,1) + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho) == norminv(147400000/(600000*1000),0,1)
We can reduce some of those numeric terms as...
format long g
norminv(0.95,0,1)
norminv(147400000/(600000*1000))
This leaves Eq1 as:
(sqrt(rho)*1.64485362695147 + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho) == -0.688189693580052
Do the same for Eq2.
norminv(0.99,0,1)
norminv(293200000/(600000*1000))
(sqrt(rho)*2.32634787404084 + norminv(pbar,0,1))/sqrt(1-rho) == -0.0284122759864473
We still see pbar in there, inside norminv, in both equations as norminv(pbar,0,1). Just call that number Z. So in the end, we have two equations in two unknowns, totally divorced from the stats toolbox.
syms rho Z
Eq1 = (sqrt(rho)*1.64485362695147 + Z)/sqrt(1-rho) == -0.688189693580052;
Eq2 = (sqrt(rho)*2.32634787404084 + Z)/sqrt(1-rho) == -0.0284122759864473;
parms = solve(Eq1,Eq2,[rho,Z]);
rho = double(parms.rho)
pbar = normcdf(double(parms.Z),0,1)
In fact, I could have taken the pencil and paper solution further, eliminating Z from the problem. Then I could probably have solved for rho by hand too, from the one equation that results. I was too lazy though. But suppose we did that... (as long as rho is not 1)
(EQ1 - EQ2)*sqrt(1-rho)
will look something like this:
12276708948987292*sqrt(rho) == 11885493328088105*sqrt((1 - rho)
Squaring both sides,
rho = (1-rho)*0.937282493509289
We can trivially now solve for rho, as 0.483813019861367. All by pencil and paper and a hand calculator. To no surprise, it agrees with what solve told me before.
