Jaycee Jeans sold 40 pairs of jeans at a price of $40. When it lowered its price to $20, the quantity sold increased to 60 pairs
grigory [225]

Answer:

The answer is: A) 0.6

Explanation:

First we will calculate the midpoint for units:

  • change in units = 40 - 60 = -20
  • average units = (40 + 60) / 2 = 50
  • midpoint for units = 20 / 50 = 0.4 (we only use positive numbers)

Now we will calculate the midpoint for price:

  • change in price = 40 - 20 = 20
  • average price = (40 + 20) / 2 = 30
  • midpoint for units = 20 / 30 = 0.67

Finally we divide 0.4 / 0.67 = 0.6

Cache Creek Manufacturing Company is expected to pay a dividend of $4.20 in the upcoming year. Dividends are expected to grow at
Digiron [165]

Answer: 0.9

Explanation:

The Expected Return on an investment can be calculated using the Dividend Discount Model as it is a key component in thw formula which is,

P = D1 / r - g

where,

D1 is the dividend paid next year

P is the current stock price

g is the growth rate

r is the expected return

With the given figures we have,

84 = 4.20 / r - 0.08

84 ( r - 0.08) = 4.20

r - 0.08 = 4.20/84

r = 4.20/84 + 0.08

r = 0.13

The Expected Return can be slotted into the CAPM formula to find the beta.

The CAPM formula calculates the Expected Return in the following manner,

Er = Rf + b( Rm - rF)

Where,

Er is expected return

Rf is the risk free rate

Rm is the market return

b is beta

Slotting in the figures gives,

0.13 = 0.04 + b( 0.14 - 0.04)

0.13 = 0.04 + b (0.1)

0.13 - 0.04 = 0.1b

b = 0.09/0.1

b = 0.9

Using the constant-growth DDM and the CAPM, the beta of the stock is 0.9

What is an option in stocks
omeli [17]

A contract known as an option grants the buyer the right, but not the duty, to purchase or sell an underlying asset (such as a stock or index) at a given price on or before a particular date (listed options are all for 100 shares of the particular underlying asset).

<h3>What is an option? Explain.</h3>

An option is a contract that grants the buyer the right, but not the responsibility, to buy the underlying asset (in the case of a call) or sell it (in the case of a put) at a certain price on or before a specific date.

Options are used by people for revenue, speculation, and risk hedging.

Because they draw their value from an underlying asset, options are classified as derivatives.

A stock option contract normally entails 100 shares of the underlying stock, but other underlying assets, such as bonds, currencies, or commodities, are also acceptable.

The dollar return is calculated as closing price minus opening price plus dividend. The percent return is the ratio of dollar return to opening price multiplied by 100.
