Answer:

24.7215

Explanation:

Given;

Discount = 50%

Regular price, p = $8

cost of cake, c = $5

salvage value, s = 50% of $8 = $4

Mean = 20

Standard deviation, σ = 7

Now,

Underage cost, Cu = p - c

= $8 - $5

= $3

Overage cost, Co = c - s

= $5 - $4

= $1

P ≤ \frac{C_{u}}{(C_{u}+C_{o})}

P ≤  \frac{3}{(3+1)}

P ≤ 0.75

The Z value for the probability 0.75 is 0.6745

The optimal stocking level = Mean + ( z × σ )

= 20 + 0.6745 × 7

= 24.7215

A customer sells short 100 shares of ABC at $35 and buys 1 ABC Jul 35 Call @ $3. The stock falls to $30 and the customer closes
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The answer is $300 gain.

Explanation:

Operations:

  • Short 100 shares of ABC at $35 each= 100 * 35 = + $3,500
  • Buy 1 ABC Jul 35 Call @ $3 (one call equals to 100 shares)= 100 * (3) = $(300), accumulated = + 3,500 - 300 = + 3,200
  • Closes the option contract at $1 = 100 * 1 = + $100, accumulated = + 3,200 + 100 = + 3,300
  • Buys the stock at the current market price (buys 100 stock @ $30 each)= 100 * (30) = $(3,000), accumulated = + 3,300 - 3,000 = + $300.

Gemiola [76]

The incremental costs that can be deduced include the cost for materials, overhead, and labor that are associated with the actual closing process.

Incremental cost simply means the total cost that's incurred as a result of an additional unit of product that is being produced.

It's simply calculated by analyzing the additional expenses that were spent by the company. They are the cost for materials, overhead, and labor that are associated with the actual closing process.

Insurance policies often contain a covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Even if the clause is not in the policy, often court
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The <em>covenant of good faith and fair dealing</em> simply requires all the parties to a contract to deal in an even-handed manner such that one party's action does not frustrate the other or prevent the other from getting the benefits of that contract.

In insurance, this covenant is sometimes captured under the heading <em>Uberrima fides</em>. This is a Latin phrase meaning <em>"Utmost Good Faith".</em>

In insurance, this covenant is legally binding on all parties to ensure they each reveal every information that is material to the acceptance or rejection of the risk (on the part of the Insurer) whilst on the part of the Insured the insurer is required to be explicit regarding the terms of the policy as well as the calculations by which the premium is arrived at.

For example, if an Insurance company is looking at covering someone under it's Life Insurance Policy, the person taking out the contract must disclose whether or not the Insured has any latent health issues which might shorten their lifespan. If there is such a condition, the Insurance company may still take on the risk albeit at a relatively higher rate than a client without such medical conditions.

 

An Insurance Company may breach this covenant if they delay or refuse to reasonable settle claims due to the Insured. It may also arise if the Insurance company by some technical manipulation intentionally under settles an Insurance claim.

If for instance, a Comprehensive Insurance Policy files a valid claim, the Insurer may be liable for negligence and or intentional wrongdoing.

Cheers!
