Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": stop-buy order.

Explanation:

A stop-buy order is an order to purchase a stock at a particular price above its current market price. By placing a stop-buy order, the investor sets the price at which he will buy the stock in advance, thus eliminating the risk of missing the price point, the opportunity to buy a stock with good returns, or covering a short position at a reasonable loss instead of allowing the negative trade balance to rise.

So, <em>setting a stop-buy order will help the trader exit the transaction at a specific price to cover losses of a short position at a reasonable risk rate.</em>

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

Projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2021:

= Beginning of 2021 + Service cost + Interest cost - Retiree benefits
