Tom's decision is based on ________.

Answer:

risk aversion.

Explanation:

Have you ever heard "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"?

It relates to safe investments or activities that yield known returns, instead of simply trying to go after more birds that you might or might not catch.

Tom knows that he can sue the title company and earn a lot of money, but he also knows that he might lose the case and instead of getting some money will have to spend a lot of his money in legal fees. Since he dislikes the risk of losing both the suit and his own money, he decided to accept the company's settlement.

A transaction is a finished settlement between a client and a seller to exchange items, offerings, or monetary property in going back for cash. The term is also commonly utilized in company accounting. In business bookkeeping, this simple definition can get complex.

Kalons, Inc. is a U.S.-based MNC that frequently imports raw materials from Canada. Kalons is typically invoiced for these goods
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) purchase Canadian dollar put options.

Explanation:

A sale option (or put option) gives its holder the right - but not the obligation - to sell an asset at a predetermined price until a specific date. The seller of the option to sell has the obligation to buy the underlying asset if the holder of the option (buyer of the right to sell) decides to exercise his right.

The purchase of put options is used as hedging, when price falls are anticipated in shares that are held, since by means of the purchase of Put the price is established from which money is earned. If the stock falls below that price, the investor earns money. If the share price falls, the profits obtained with the sale option compensate in whole or in part for the loss experienced by said fall.

Losses are limited to the premium (price paid for the purchase of the sale option). Earnings increase as the share price falls in the market.
