Answer:

d. $96,914

Explanation:

Parker Co. can execute money market hedge in following steps:

(1) Parker Co. pledges Receivable of SF200,000 to borrow SF190,476 with rate 5% in Switzerland; SF190,476 = SF200,000/ (1+5%)

so it has to pay interest expense of SF9,524 in 360 days. The receivable of SF200,000 is enough for both principal and interest in 360 days.

(2) Then it sells SF190,476 at spot rate $0.48 to get $91,428

(3) Then it deposits $91,428 in US with rate 6% to get back $96,914 in 360 days ; $96,914 = $91,428 * (1+6%)

Gnom [1K]

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing information

Answer :

$900

$600

<u>Given the new price of $4 by Government </u>

quantity demanded = 400 units

quantity supplied = 150 units

quantity bought and sold = 150 units

  • $975
  • $150
  • $375

Explanation:

Consumer surplus ( area below demand curve and above $300  

= Area of triangle = 0.5 * base * height

= 0.5 * 300 ( 12 - 6 )  = $900

producer surplus ( area above supply curve and below $300

=  Area of the triangle = 0.5 * 300 ( 6-2 ) = $600

<u>Given the new price of $4 by Government </u>

quantity demanded = 400 units

quantity supplied = 150 units

quantity bought and sold = 150 units

Consumer surplus ( area of triangle + area of rectangle )

= 0.5 * 150 * ( 12-9 )+ L*B

= 0.5 * 150 * ( 3 ) + 150 * ( 9 - 4 )  = $975

producer surplus ( Area of triangle )

= 0.5 * 150 * (4-2) = $150

deadweight loss ( area of triangle )

= 0.5 * ( 300 - 150 ) ( 9-4 )

= $375
