Answer: b. The put price decreases to $3.50

Explanation:

Put - Call Parity refers to the relationship that a certain European Put has with a European Call of the same underlying asset, strike price, and expiration date.

If Put - Call Clarity holds then the options and the calls should move together when Volatility changes all else being equal.

In the above scenario, the price of the call DROPPED by $0.5 to $2.50.

This means that the Put Price must DROP AS WELL by $0.5 to $3.50 to maintain the Parity.

Answer:

The correct answer is E. Initial public offering.

Explanation:

An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is an equity offering where a <u>private company</u> or '<u>issuer</u>' decides to <em>go public for the first time</em>. This is a big step for companies to raise capital through public investors, get access to better and more credit and further grow a company. To go through with an IPO, a company must meet the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Comission (SEC).

The process is made with the help of one or more <u>investment banks</u> that act as <u>underwriters</u>. Underwriters take care of the offering from the beginning to the end of the IPO by preparing documentation, providing proposals on selling price, amount of shares & timeframe for the market offering, marketing campaigns and going through the issuing process.

The Doright Door Company is considering outsourcing production of its door to Mexico. Use the weighted scoring method to evaluat
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

(A) Mexican supplier cost = $445,800 or $89.16 average cost.

In-house cost = $714,000 or $142.8

(B) Mexican supplier total weighted score = 0.265 or 22.43%

In-house supplier weighted score= 0.238 or 23.8%

(C) Yes, explaination below

Explanation:

Mexican Supplier cost breakdown:

Quota price $83 X 5000 = $415, 000

Transport cost

1. to transport 5000 doors would require making a total of 20 trips from Mexico to USA (5000/250 doors)

2. at a cost of $825 per trip, total cost to transport doors is = $16,500.

Sending Engineers costs and Negotiation cost =

$5000 + $1000

(Transport+Sending Engineers cost) =

$22,500

Inventory carrying cost= 20% of cost of storing the goods. (total of all other cost) 20% x 22500 = $8300

Total cost = $445,800 or $89.16 average cost.

Total weighted score average:

Using the formula;

Weight= score x rating

Score = Weight/rating (making score subject of the formula)

Mexican Weighted

score1= 16%/3 = 0.0533, + 0.12 score2, + 0.035 + score3, + 0.056 + score4. = 0.265.

American weighted score

Using same formula;

0.04 score1, + 0.15 score2, + 0.014 score3, + 0.034 score 4 = 0.238.

The company should outsource the product. Why? because it will reduce total cost of doors, making them cheaper for if they do so, resulting in higher profit.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

restitution.

Explanation:

In contract law, restitution refers to a party forfeiting monetary gains that they obtained illegally from the other party involved in the contract. Restitution is very commonly used in contract law since it is meant to restore an injured party due to damages suffered from another parties unlawful performance. Ideally, when restitution is applied, the injured party should return to their original position.

In this case, Excavate n' Fill must return the $10,000 that Fred gave them as advanced payment. The restitution of the $10,000 should restore Fred's original position.
