Answer:
<h2>Market Value of the 200 share position:</h2>
= 200 x $47.25
= $9,450
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase of 200 shares of an S&P 500 Inverse ETF (-1x) at $50 per share
= $10,000 at beginning on purchase date.
Value at the end of the day = $9,000 ($10,000 x 0.90)
Value at the end of the next day = $9,450 ($9,000 x 1.05)
Another way to calculate the above is to concentrate on the unit price
Therefore, purchase price = $50 per share
Value on purchase date = 200 x $50 = $10,000
End of the purchase day price = $45 ($50 x 90%)
Value at the end of the day = 200 x $45 = $9,000
Next day price = $47.25 ($45 x 1.05)
Value next day = 200 x $47.25 = $9,450
