Answer and Explanation:
Earnings per Share, EPS = <u>Net Income dividend of preferred stock</u>
Number of stock outstanding
EPS depends on the earnings and its dilution due to increase in preferred stock also it depends on the net income earned
When EPS is higher than analyst prediction,
this may be due to increase in the net income
or
payback of common stock or preferred stock
thereby leading to reduction in the number of stock outstanding
When EPS is lower than analyst prediction
this would be due to reduction in the net income
or
increase of stock or preferred stock due to fresh issue
Insurance against issues that could lead to reduction on income and inrease in the activities that will lead to net income increase can help meet or surpass analyst prediction
This law will impact the labor market cause of low pay rate that will stop more people from applying for that job
Answer:
$200 loss
Explanation:
The customer's paid in total $51 (market price) + $5 per share (put options) = $56 per share. If the investor exercises the put options, he/she will have a net loss of $55 (put option price) - $56 (cost) = -$1 per share. Since the investor had 200 shares, his/her total loss would equal -$1 x 200 = -$200
