Answer:

b) -$1,562

Explanation:

The speculator has the chance for sale at 1.50 because the price rises instead of decrease, it is losing money.

The speculator does not use their right to sale at 1.50

It will simply lose the value on which purchase the put option

0.05$ per unit  x 31250 units  = 1562.5

Westkost [7]

Answer:

0.22 and substitutes goods

Explanation:

The computation of the cross-price elasticity of demand using mid point formula is shown below:

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)  

where,  

Change in quantity demanded is

= Q2 - Q1

= 180,603 - 194,108

= -13,505

And, the average of quantity demanded is

= (180,603 + 194,108) ÷ 2

= 187,356

Change in price is

= P2 - P1

= $2.43 - $3.36

= -$0.93

And, the average of price is

= ($2.43 + $3.36) ÷ 2

= 2.895

So, after solving this, the cross - price elasticity is 0.22

Since the cross - price elasticity is positive that reflect the goods are substitutes to each other
