I assumed you typo 821 by $21 per unit, then the answer will be
1- financial disadvantage of accepting the special order is loss of $60,000
2- a minimum selling price for these units should be $14.00
Explanation:
Loss of $60,000 = 15,000 x (14,000 – (5.1+3.8+1+4.2+1.5+2.4))
a minimum selling price for these units is $14.00 per unit because it’s the price the company can earn if accept a special order, though lower than cost of producing and selling at $18.00
Answer:
The correct answer is C) purchase Canadian dollar put options.
Explanation:
A sale option (or put option) gives its holder the right - but not the obligation - to sell an asset at a predetermined price until a specific date. The seller of the option to sell has the obligation to buy the underlying asset if the holder of the option (buyer of the right to sell) decides to exercise his right.
The purchase of put options is used as hedging, when price falls are anticipated in shares that are held, since by means of the purchase of Put the price is established from which money is earned. If the stock falls below that price, the investor earns money. If the share price falls, the profits obtained with the sale option compensate in whole or in part for the loss experienced by said fall.
Losses are limited to the premium (price paid for the purchase of the sale option). Earnings increase as the share price falls in the market.
I understand here the "money creation" to mean that the money would enter the circulation. Then the bigger amount of money creation is when less money needs to be retained by the banks!
and if the bank has to keep 10%, this is less than when it needs to keep 20% - so more money would enter the market in Canada!
