lukranit [14]

Answer:

Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc.

a) Current Portion of Note Payable:

= $4,000

b) Long-term Portion of Note Payable:

= $6,000

Explanation:

Data and Calculations:

Date of Note Payable = November 1, 2017

Period = 3 years

Interest rate = 5%

Terms of payment:

Fixed principal payments = $2,000

Payment dates = May 1 and November 1

Each year's principal repayment = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

From November 1, 2017 to October 31, 2018 = $4,000

At October 31, 2018, Payment made = $2,000 on May 1

Remaining Note payable = $10,000 ($12,000 - $2,000)

Current Portion = $4,000 ($2,000 x 2)

Long-term Portion = $6,000

b) The current portion of $4,000 will be payable on November 1, 2018 and May 1, 2019.  The current portion represents the short-term portion of the note payable, which is the portion that will be settled within a 12-months' period.  Since Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc. had already paid $2,000 on May 1, 2018, the long-term portion will only remain $6,000 ($12,000 - $2,000 - $4,000), which is the difference between the total note payable, the portion paid on May 1, 2018, and the current portion of $4,000 that will be payable within one year.

Malmentier SA stock is currently priced at $85, and it does not pay dividends. The instantaneous risk-free rate of return is 5%.
Annette [7]

Answer:

you should hold <u>76</u> shares of stock per 100 put options to hedge your risk.

Explanation:

Current stock price, S = $85

Risk-free rate of return, r = 5%

Standard Deviation, v = 25%

Exercise price, X = $90

expiration date, t (in years) = 30 days = 1 month = 1/12 = 0.083333 years

The option price (OP) is given by the formula:

OP = Xe^{-rt} * N(-d_{2} ) - S*N(-d_1)

d_1 = [ln(S/X) + (r + v^{2} /2)t]/vt^{0.5}\\d_1 =  [ln(85/90) + (0.05 + 0.25^{2} /2)*0.08333]/(0.25*0.08333^{0.5})\\d_1 = -0.6982

d_2 = d_1 - (vt^{0.5})\\d_2 = -0.6982 - (0.25*0.08333^{0.5})\\d_2 = -0.7704

Using the pro-metric calculator for the cumulative normal distribution:

N(-d1) = N(- (-0.6982)) = N(0.6982) = 0.75747

N(-d2) = N(-(-0.7704)) = N(0.7704) = 0.77947

OP = Xe^{-rt} * N(-d_{2} ) - S*N(-d_1)

OP =[ 90e^{(-0.05*0.08333)} * 0.77947] - (85*0.75747)\\OP = 5.48

Note that N(-d₁) = 0.76

This means that 76/100 (i.e to hedge your risk, you should hold 76 per 100 put options )
