Answer:

C) Buy a DFI call with an exercise price of 35.

Explanation:

A Call is a buy option of 100 shares, in this case, of DFI. It has an exercise price, that represents the number of comparison with the market price. If the market is lower than the exercise, the call expires without earnings (only the premium that is paid when you buy it). If the market is higher than exercise, then the profit is the differen between the two prices. So, if the customer is short with 100 shares (expecting a lowering of prices), but he believes that a near-term rally is going to happen, then he can buy this option, and cover his losses when the prices rise.

Goshia [24]

Answer: D. When an organization is planning for mass casualty incidents, an effective approach is to request law enforcement personnel to develop a separate plan for mass casualty incidents for the organization.

Explanation:

Mass casualty incident refers to a situation in which medical services are overwhelmed by the number of casualties.

From the options given, the false statement is that "When an organization is planning for mass casualty incidents, an effective approach is to request law enforcement personnel to develop a separate plan for mass casualty incidents for the organization".

This is incorrect. In a mass casualty, a separate plan cannot be developed for an organization. All the casualties are entitled to same plan.

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Vault-Tec's break-even level of sales ==$3,000,000  

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss.

It is calculated using this formula:

Break-even point (sales) = Fixed cost/c/s ratio.

c/s means contribution to sales ratio

C/s ratio = (sales - variable cost)/sales

C/S is the proportion of sales value that is earned as contribution. its is sales less variable costs.

So if for an instance, variable costs are 60% of sales, then contribution will be 40% of sales i.e (100-60)% .

<em>Now we can apply these concepts to our questions:</em>

c/s =( 100-75)% = 25%

Break-even point( sales) = (1,000,000- 250,000)/25%

                                         = 750,000/0.25

                                          =$3,000,000

<em>Note that depreciation is excluded from the fixed costs because it is a non-cash flow item.</em>

Vault-Tec's break-even level of sales ==$3,000,000

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Differential profit Profit = $40,000

Explanation:

<em>The differential operating profit is the difference between the operating profit before the introduction of the product and after the introduction of the new product</em>

<em>Profit = Revenue - costs</em>

Profit before the introduction of the new product

= 2,000,000 - 1,500,000 = 500,000

Profit after the introduction of the new product

New revenue =  (2,000,000 + 200,000) = 2,200,000

Cumulative cost = 1,500,000 + 160,000 =  1,660,000

Profit = 2,200,000 - 1,660,000 = 540000

Differential profit Profit =  540,000 - 500,000= $40,000
