6. Total variable costs for 12,500 units produced and sold:

= 12,500 * $11.55

= $144,375

7. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 8,000 units:

= $4.00

8. Average fixed manufacturing cost per unit produced for 12,500 units:

9. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 x $4.00

= $32,000

10. Total fixed manufacturing cost for 12,500 units:

= 12,500 x $4.00

= $50,000

11. Total amount of manufacturing overhead costs for 8,000 units:

= 8,000 * $5.60

= $44,800

per unit = $5.60

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead =     $4.00

Total per unit =                                  $5.60

12. Total amount of manufacturing overhead for 12,500 units:

The price of a European call option on a non-dividend-paying stock with a strike price of $50 is $6. The stock price is $51, the
klemol [59]

Answer: 2.09

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Strike price (K) = $50

Price (c) = $6

Rate (r) = 6% = 0.06

Stock price (So) = $51

Time (T) = 1

Recall, relation for a put-call parity(p) is given by:

p + So = c + Ke^-(rT)

p = c + [Ke^-(rT)] - So

p = 6 + [50e^-(0.06 × 1)] - 51

p = 6 + [50×e^-0.06] - 51

p = 6 + (50 × 0.9417645) - 51

p = 6 + 47.0882267 - 51

p = 53.0882267 - 51

p = 2.0882267

p = 2.09
