Answer:
The incomplete part of the question is "Using a cap-and-trade system of tradable emission allowances will eliminate half of the sulfur dioxide pollution at a cost of $1 million per year. If the permits are not tradable, what will be the cost of eliminating half of the pollution? If permits cannot be traded, then the cost of the pollution reduction will be $1 million per year." The full question is attched as picture as well
1) Tradable permit system
Then lower MAC firm will abate the all pollution units
Then as MAC1 = $250, MAC2 = $275
Firm 1 = Consolidated electric
Firm 2 = Commonwealth utility
Then 1 will sell all permits to 2, at a price between $250 & $275.
So total cost of abatement of 20 units = MAC1 * 20
= $250 * 20 Unit
= $5,000
2) Non-tradable permits
Total cost = MC1*10 + MC2*10
= $2,500 + $2,750
= $5,250
Answer:
A) according to put call parity:
price of put option = call option - stock price + [future value / (1 + risk free rate)ⁿ]
put = $8.89 - $120 + [$120 / (1 + 8%)¹/⁴] = $8.89 - $120 +$117.71 = $6.60
B) you have to purchase both a put and call option ⇒ straddle
the total cost of the investment = $8.89 + $6.60 = $15.496, this way you can make a profit if the stock price increases higher than $120 + $6.60 = $126.60 or decreases below than $120 - $6.60 = $113.40
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
Arbitrage refers to a situation wherein a gain is made owing to price discrepancy or unevenness in two markets. The rule for arbitrage is to buy from the markets where price is less and sell in the markets where price is higher.
Triangular arbitrage occurs wherein 3 different currencies are involved and the exchange rates are not uniform i.e a discrepancy exists and interest rate parity does not hold true.
Interest rate parity refers to the concept wherein the disparity between two currency exchange rates is adjusted by the respective interest rates of the two countries. When interest rate parity exists, no arbitrage is possible as markets are fairly priced.
Answer:
The tax that must be added to the C corporation tax liability for the year before the S election = $49000*1/4=$12250
The rest of the three instalments of $12250 each will be paid with Lent Corporation's next three tax returns
Explanation:
FIFO Value/basis =$650000
LIFO value/basis =$510000
Difference =$140000
35% Tax =$140000*35% = $49000
The tax that must be added to the C corporation tax liability for the year before the S election = $49000*1/4=$12250
The rest of the three instalments of $12250 each will be paid with Lent Corporation's next three tax returns
