Warnes Motors' stock is trading at $20 a share. Three-month call options with an exercise price of $20 have a price of $1.50. Wh
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

B. The price of the call option will increase by less than $2, but the percentage increase in price will be more than 10%.

Explanation:

Given

Trading price = $20

Exercise price of call option = $20

Call option price = $1.50

Price increment = 10% to $22

It's not be noted that the discounted present value of a price of an option is represented by its expected payoff.

An increment of $2 in stock price attracts an increment of more than $2 in the payoff option.

Having highlighted that, it's also to be noted that the increment in expected payoff will be by an amount less than $2 and same with present value because the possibility is less than 1. So, the price of the option will increase by less than $2.

Moving to the percentage increase;

This will be larger than 10%.

This is because when stock price increases by 10%, the value of the option will increase by more than 10%.

Olin [163]

Answer:

$3,000

Explanation:

Warranty expense is an obligation on the business because business is liable to accept the claims of warranty. A estimated percentage of warranty expense is charges as an expense in each period.

Total Sales = $500 x 6,000 units = $3,000,000

Warranty Expense for the year = Sales units x 3% x warranty cost per unit

Warranty Expense for the year = 6,000 x 3% x $50 = $9,000

Recognised warranty cost in the year = 120 units x $50 = $6,000

Accrued Warranty expense = $9,000 - $6,000 = $3,000
