Answer:

C. Sell a straddle

Explanation:

Considering the following calculation: Sell a straddle = sell a put + sell a call

and,

Premium income for selling a straddle = (P + C )100 = ($3 + $4)(100) = $700.

a short straddle involves simultaneously selling a put option and call option with the same underlying asset, same exercise price and expiration date

By Selling a 3 month put option with exercise price of $40 one will get $3 (inflow of $3)

Simulatenously By Selling a 3 month call option with exercise of $40 one wiil get $4(inflow of $4)

Thus the total premium income of selling a straddle is $7

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$20,880

Explanation:

Under the direct method we ignore services that are provided to the other service departments.

In order to allocate the building operation costs to Operating department A, we need to determine what percentage of the building space taken up by Operating departments is used by Operation Department A.

There is a total of 50000 square feet and Operating Department A occupies 60%(30000/50000 of that.

So Operating Department A will get 60% of the building costs

  i.e., 60% × 34800 = 20,880

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Reduction of cost basis per share.

When you take a look at some of the rules that IRS has, you see that stock dividends do not get taxsd at the time of receipt. They don't get taxed because, the shareholder does not receive anything from the company, only but a hope on any increased future share price increment or appreciation.
