Answer:
The amount of interest expenses that Jennifer can deduct from her tax return for tax year 2019 is $100.
Explanation:
The amount of interest expenses that Jennifer can deduct from her tax return for tax year 2019 can be calculated using the following formula:
Interest expenses deductible = (Taxable interest / Total interest) * Interest expenses .................... (1)
Where;
Taxable interest = $1,200
Total interest = $6,000
Interest expenses = $500
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Interest expenses deductible = ($1,200 / $6,000) * $500
Interest expenses deductible = 0.20 * $500
Interest expenses deductible =$100
Therefore, the amount of interest expenses that Jennifer can deduct from her tax return for tax year 2019 is $100.
Answer:
$ 142,800.00
Explanation:
The ending inventory can be computed by rearranging the cost of goods sold formula:
cost of goods sold=Beginning inventory+net purchases-ending inventory
ending inventory=beginning inventory+net purchases-cost of goods sold
beginning inventory is $92,000
Net purchases=purchases-discount+freight-in charges-purchase return
net purchases=$425,000-($425,000*1%)+$7000-($5000*99%)=$422,800.00
cost of goods sold is $372,000
ending inventory=$92,000+$422,800-$372,000=$ 142,800.00

Answer:
$13.64
Explanation:
Given:
Exercise price,X = $100
Current price = $100
Value when price is up, uS = $120
Value when price is down, dS= $80
Risk free interest rate = 10%
First calculate hedge ratio, H:
Where,
Cu = uS - X
= 120 - 100
= $20
A risk free portfolio involves one share and two call options.
Find cost of portfolio:
Cost of portfolio = Cost of stock - Cost of the two cells.
= $100 - 2C
This portfolio is risk free. The table below shows that
_______________
Portforlio 1:
Buy 1 share $80; Write 2 calls: $0; Total: ($80 + 0) $80
____________________
Portforlio 2:
Buy 1 share: $120; Write 2 calls: -$40; Total: ($120 - $40) $80
Check for oresent value of the portfolio:
Present value 
Value = exercise price - value of option
$72.73 = $100 - 2C
Find call option, C
Call option's value = $13.64
