to learn how to run the pizza catering business, John enrolled in a TAFE to acquire catering skills. John’s course was for 3 months. John had to pay $2,000 as tuition for the 3 months.

Implicit cost

Salary forgone                              80000

Interest on savings (110000*5%)  5500

The common stock of the P.U.T.T. Corporation has been trading in a narrow price range for the past month, and you are convinced
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

A) according to put call parity:

price of put option = call option - stock price + [future value / (1 + risk free rate)ⁿ]

put = $6.93 - $125 + [$140 / (1 + 5%)¹/⁴] = $6.93 - $125 +$138.30 = $20.23

B)

you have to purchase both a put and call option ⇒ straddle

the total cost of the investment = $6.93 + $20.23 = $27.16, this way you can make a profit if the stock price increases higher than $125 + $20.23 = $145.23 or decreases below than $125 - $20.23 = $104.77

A farmer and a meatpacker use the commodity markets to reduce their risk. One agrees to buy live cattle in the future at a fixed
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

A farmer is the one that owns the cattle and is ready to sell it on the market demand, while the meatpacker is the one who buys the product and sells it in different parts to the end consumers.

Since they both are using the commodity market to reduce the risk, the farmer will be the one who agrees to sell the cattle in the future at a fixed rate, while the meatpacker will be the one who agrees to buy the cattle in the future at a specified price fixed by him.

Hope this helps. ThankYou.

What if Jennifer were to invest $2.750 today, compounded semiannually, with an annual interest rate of 5.25%. What amount of int
KIM [24]

Answer:

d. $146.27

Explanation:

For computing the interest earned, first we have to calculate the future value which is shown below:

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate)^number of years

where,

Present value = $2,750

Rate = 5.25% ÷ 2 = 2.625%

Number of years = 1 year × 2 = 2 years

So, the future value

= $2,750 × (1 + 2.625%)^2

= $2,750 × 1.0531890625

= $2,896.27

Now the interest earned would be

= $2,896.27 - $2,750

= $146.27
