Answer:

* If you could get 1,200 shares in Woods and 1,200 shares in Mickelson, your profit would be: $7,200;

* Actual expected profit: $2,400.

Explanation:

*<u> If you could get 1,200 shares in Woods and 1,200 shares in Mickelson, what would your profit be?</u>

The total profit would be equals to the sum of positive payoff and negative payoff in which:

Positive payoff = Undervalued per share * 1,2000 shares bought = 8 * 1,200 = $9,600.

Negative payoff = Overvalued per share * 1,2000 shares bought = (2) * 1,200 = $(2,400)

=> Total profit = $9,600 - $2,400 = $7,200.

*  <u>What profit do you actually expect:</u>

As for positive payoff stock purchasing, we can only get half of the stock which is 600 stocks, the profit will be again equals to the sum of positive payoff and negative payoff in which:

Positive payoff = Undervalued per share * 600 shares bought = 8 * 600 = $4,800.

Negative payoff = Overvalued per share * 1,2000 shares bought = (2) * 1,200 = $(2,400)

=> Total profit = $4,800 - $2,400 = $2,400.

You just won the lottery, which promises you $200,000 per year for the next 20 years. You receive the first payment today (hint:
dsp73

Answer:

The present value of your winnings is <u>$1,959,555.65</u>.

Explanation:

Since  this is an annuity due as already hinted in the question, the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of an annuity is used as follows:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + r)]^n} ÷ r] × (1 + r) .................................. (1)

Where ;

PV = Present value of winnings =?

P = Annual payment = $200,000

r = interest rate = 9.25%, or 0.0925

n = number of years = 20

Substituting the values into equation (1) above, we have:

PV = $200,000 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.0925)]^20} ÷ 0.0925] × (1 + 0.0925)

PV = 200,000 ×8.96821807613347 × 1.0925

PV = $1,959,555.65

Therefore, the present value of your winnings is <u>$1,959,555.65</u>.

seropon [69]

Answer: First-run syndication

Explanation:

Syndication refers to when multiple television and radio stations are able to lease the rights to a program without them having to do so through a broadcast network.

First-run syndication means that a show was first broadcast on several television stations because it was made to be broadcast as such. In other words the creators produced it specifically for the syndication market or purchased the rights from another country and then sold it into syndication in a country in which it was broadcasting for the first time.
