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

Answer:

Explanation:

Complete the sentence. "When a market failure arises because marginal social benefit exceeds the ability and willingness to​ pay
pochemuha

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Market failure refers to the situation when the market is not able to efficiently allocate resources and the government has to intervene. Market failure generally happens because of the presence of externalities.  

When the marginal social cost is greater than the ability and willingness to pay, the market will fail to optimally allocate resources. The government, as a result, will intervene.  

The government will use vouchers which will cause the marginal private benefit curve to shift upwards by the size of the per-unit voucher.
