Answer:

The value of the put option is;

e. $9.00

Explanation:

To determine the value of the put option can be expressed as;

C(t)-P(t)=S(t)-K.e^(-rt)

where;

C(t)=value of the call at time t

P(t)=value of the put at time t

S(t)=current price of the stock

K=strike price

r=annual risk free rate

t=duration of call option

In our case;

C(t)=$7.2

P(t)=unknown

S(t)=$50

K=$55

r=6%=6/100=0.06

t=1 year

replacing;

7.2-P=50-55×e^(-0.06×1)

7.2-P=50-(55×0.942)

7.2-P=50-51.797

P=51.797+7.2-50

P=$8.997 rounded off to 2 decimal places=$9.00

Direct labor and indirect labor are recorded, respectively, to:
torisob [31]

Answer:

d. Work in Process Inventory and Factory Overhead.

Explanation:

Direct labor is labor that is directly involved in the production process, for example a machine operator in a factory is supplying direct labor. So when recording direct labor we do so under work in process inventory as that is where the labour is applied.

Indirect labour is one that is not directly involved in the production process, for example office cleaners, building maintenance. Since their contribution is not directly impacting production, indirect labor is recorded under factory overhead.

Why does the free-market system require government regulation? Companies can't be efficient or innovative on their own. Foreign
melomori [17]

Answer:

The correct answer are the option B and C: Foreign competition would wipe out domestic production and producers are driven by the profit motive to work against competition.

Explanation:

First of all, the huge companies, and that includes the foreign competition, will always wipe out the small ones and that situation will definitely impact in the domestic economy of a country by leaving without work to the other enterprises and their employees, also by increasing prices and obligating to the customers to buy them due to their power in the industry and more. That is why, government regulation is obviously needed in the free-market system because if there is not, then the leader organization will do as they please with the market.

Secondly, the companies are lucrative organization and therefore that the most important thing that they care about is to make money by producing goods or giving services to the community that need it. That is why, if there is not government then the most powerful companies would try to eliminate the small ones by taking all their consumers away.

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

c. Purchase cost of existing machine

Explanation:

Relevant  costs are the incremental costs that can be avoided by avoiding the functional activity with which the costs are associated.

Maintenance costs are relevant as they are directly linked to the use of machinery and as such are incremental with the use. The same is the case with the maintenance costs of the existing machine as they are avoidable if the new machine is purchased.

Expected cost savings would be incremental with the improved new machine. These cost savings thus are relevant.

Resale value of existing machine are also relevant as these would contribute towards the purchase of new machine.

The purchase price of existing machine is irrelevant as the machine cost has already been paid and regardless of purchasing the new machine or not, this cost is not a part of any calculations.

Hope that helps.
