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

You are the manager of a firm that produces output in two plants. The demand for your firm's product is P = 78 − 15Q, where Q =
Leona [35]

Answer:

correct option is B. 40.5

Explanation:

given data

P = 78 - 15 Q

Q = Q1 + Q2

MC1 = 3Q1

MC2 = 2Q2

to find out

What price should be charged to maximize profits

solution

we get here first total revenue and marginal revenue that is

total revenue TR = P × Q   .......1

total revenue TR = 78Q - 15Q²

and

marginal revenue MR = \frac{change\ in\ TR}{change\ in\ Q}

marginal revenue MR = 78 - 30Q

now we get here

marginal revenue MR = MC1 = MC2

put here value

78 - 30Q1 - 30Q2 = 3 Q1 or 33 Q1 = 78 - 30Q2   ......................................a

78 - 30 Q1 - 30 Q2 = 2 Q2 or Q2 = 78 - 30Q1/32   ................................b

by equation a and b we get here

33 Q1 = 78 - 30 (78 - \frac{30Q1}{32} )

so here Q1 = 1 and

Q2 = 78 -  \frac{30*1}{32}

Q2 = 1.5

so that Q will be

Q = Q1 + Q2

Q = 1 + 1.5

Q = 2.5

now we get value of P that is

P = 78 - 15 Q

P = 78 - 15 (2.5)  

P = 40.5

so charged to maximize profits is 40.5

so correct option is B. 40.5
