Answer:

d. $6,500,000 dollars

Explanation:

Hedging is a strategy used by investment firms that want to minimize the risk of loosing their investments, so what they basically do is giving up the actions and investments and get some money in return, the exercise price is what they will pay you for your total investment, and the premium fee is somthing you have to pay to hedge an investment:

So you multiply the 12.5 million by .55 which is the amount you´ll receive, and withdraw form that the premium:

12,500,000x.55=$6,875,000

12,500,000x.03=$375,000

$6.875,000-$375,000= $6,500,000

The firm will receive $6,500,000 dollars.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

He will have $102,979 in his retirement account in 10 years.

Explanation:

Annual Payment = $2,000

Number of Year = n = 10

Interest rate = i = 5%

Compounded Quarterly

Future value after 10 years

FV = A [ ( ( 1 + ( r / m )^mt ) - 1 / ( r / m )

FV = $2,000 [ ( ( 1 + ( 0.05 / 4 )^40 ) - 1 / ( 0.05 / 4 )

Future value = $102,979

So, Ira Schwab will have $102,979 in his retirement account in 10 years.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Dividend yield is 2.91 %.

Explanation:

Dividend yield = Annual Dividend per Share / Stock Price per Share × 100

<em>where,</em>

Annual Dividend per Share = Total Dividends ÷ Total Number of Shares

                                              = $835 ÷ 500

                                              = $1.67

<em>then,</em>

Dividend yield = $1.67 / $57.48 × 100

                        = 2.905 or 2.91 %

O'Brien Ltd.'s outstanding bonds have a $1,000 par value, and they mature in 25 years. Their nominal annual, not semiannual yiel
kiruha [24]

Answer:

7.84%

Explanation:

Given:

Bond's par value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 25 × 2 = 50 periods (since it's semi-annual)

YTM (rate) = 0.0925÷2 = 0.04625 semi annually

Price of bond (PV) = $875

Calculate coupon payment (pmt) using spreadsheet function =pmt(rate,nper,-PV,FV)

PV is negative as it's a cash outflow.

So semi- annual coupon payment is $39.20

Annual coupon payment = 39.2×2 = $78.40

Nominal Coupon rate = Annual coupon payment ÷ Par value

                                     = 78.4 ÷ 1000

                                     = 0.0784 or 7.84%

Bess [88]

Answer:

They will have an Exogamous marriage.

Explanation:

Exogamous is a custom of marrying outside own social group or class. These marriage is based on personal choices rather than culture, language, caste, religion, class etc. Exogamous is not widely acceptable across different culture and society.

There are cultures which have penalty or punishment for Exogamous marriage. Endogamus is opposite of Exogamous, where it is mandatory to marry within one´s own group, class etc.

In this case, cate is a daughter of rich father, however Harry is a poor farmer. They belong to different class of society, yet they are planning June wedding. Therefore, we can say they will have an Exogamous marriage.
