Explanation:
A company's leadership team is an essential part of the company's strategic development and decision-making process.

Answer:
Option B,
The higher the degree of financial leverage employed by a firm, THE HIGHER THE PROBABILITY THAT THE FIRM WILL ENCOUNTER FINANCIAL DISTRESS.
Explanation:
The degree of financial leverage (DFL) is a leverage ratio that measures the sensitivity of a company's earnings per share to fluctuations in it's operating income, as a result of changes in its capital structure.
This ratio indicates that the higher the degree of financial leverage, the more volatile earnings will be.
The use of financial leverage varies greatly by industry and by the business sector. There are many industry sectors in which companies operate with a high degree of financial leverage (examples are retail stores, grocery store, banking institutions, airlines...). Unfortunately, the excessive use of financial leverage by many companies in this sector has played a major role in forcing a lot of them to file for bankruptcy.
Therefore, if the degree of financial leverage employed by a firm is high, then the probability that the firm will encounter financial distress will also be high.
Answer:
$24,530, $23,530
Explanation:
Incomplete word <em>"and if the spot price in September proves to be $2,300."</em>

Note that Call options will be exercised only if the price on expiry is greater than strike price
Strike price = $2400
Premium paid = $53 for each contract, so the total premium paid = $530 for 10 contracts
<u>CASE 1</u>
Price = $2600
As price on expiry=2600 > Strike price=2400
Call option will be exercised.
Company will pay = $2400 * 10+530 = $24,530
<u>CASE 2</u>
Price = $2300
As price on expiry=2300 < Strike price=2400
Call option will not be exercised and will purchase from open market
Company will pay = $2300 * 10+530 = $23,530
