Answer:

The <u>Higher</u> the existing spot price relative to the strike price the <u>more </u>valuable the call options will be.

Explanation:

Spot price simply refers to how much a particular stock is trading in the market (that is, Market Price of the Stock).

Strike Price, also known as exercise price, is the price at which a person (corporate or individual) can purchase security.

Call options refers to the option to purchase an asset at an agreed price prior to/or at a particular day.

If for instance an employee is presented with Stock Options at a particular price, it will be more attractive for him or her if the price at which it is being offered is lower than it's actual market value. That way, he or she has already made a profit.

For example, if the spot price for the stock of Google is $2000/Unit and it is offered to an employee at $1450, if he elects to buy it at that time, he stands a chance to make $550 on each unit that if he sells whilst the spot price is still reasonable.

Cheers!

Answer:

The <u>higher</u> the existing spot price relative to the strike price, the <u>less</u> valuable the call options will be.

Explanation:

Call options refer to financial contracts in which the buyer of the option has the right, but not obligation, to buy asset or instrument at an already agreed price on or before a particular date. The particular date is also known as the expiration date.

The strike price is refers to the price at which a put or call option can be exercised on or  before a particular date.

The spot price refers the current market price at which an instrument or asset is bought or sold now for immediate payment and delivery.

The relationship between the strike price and the spot price is that a call option is most valuable when the strike price is higher than the spot price. At this point, the call option is said to be in the money (ITM). On the other hand, a call option is least valuable when the strike price is lower than the spot price. At this point, the call option is said to be out of the money (OTM).

Based on the explantion above, therefore, the <u>higher</u> the existing spot price relative to the strike price, the <u>less</u> valuable the call options will be.

The following data pertains to activity and maintenance costs for two recent years:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Y= 6000 + 0.75X

Explanation:

High and low cost technique

Using the a high and low technique, total cost can be analysed and separated into fixed and variable portion. This analysis helps in the forecast of cost and therefore important for the preparation of budget.

<em>Variable cost of maintenance</em>

= (Cost at high activity - Cost at low activity)/ (high activity - low activity)

VC per act. = ( $15000 - $12000)/(12,000-8000)

                   = $0.75 per activity

<em>Fixed cost of maintenance</em>

= Total cost at high activity - (VC per act × high activity)

=  $15,000 - ( $0.75 ×  12,000)

=   $6,000

The cost formula will be:

Y= 6000 + 0.75X

Where Y = maintenance cost, X= level of activity
