Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 6.82%

Explanation:

Currently the yield to maturity is the  pre-tax cost of debt for Hype company, however the after tax cost of debt considers that the bonds are tax deductible , its actual is less than the pre-tax cost of debt , hence the after-tax cost of debt is shown below

After tax cost of debt=yield to maturity *(1-tax)

after tax cost of debt=11%*(1-0.38)

after tax cost of debt=11%*0.62

after tax cost of debt =6.82%

This confirms that cost of debt is usually lower than cost of equity , where shareholders would want an extra premium to compensate them for the increased risk taken by investing in the business.

"A customer is long the Swiss Franc at a cost of $.60 per SF. The customer wishes to place a collar on the position using PHLX S
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

To create the collar, the customer would: <u>buy 1 PHLX 59 SF Call and sell 1 PHLX 61 SF Call.</u>

Explanation:

The meaning of a "collar" is that a put is bought at a strike price that is less than the price of the underlying instrument (this implies that a floor has been put on the price of the instrument); and that a call is disposed at a strike price which is higher than the price of the underlying instrument (this indicates that a ceiling above which the instrument will be called away has been created).

When a collar is put on the price, it indicates that the customer is majorly giving a guarantee for the underlying instrument's minimum and maximum price.

This should make the net cost of the collar to be close to zero due to the fact that the two contracts are "out the money" and also because the premium paid to buy the put is offset by the premium received when the call was sold.

Therefore, since customer in the question wishes to place a collar on the position using PHLX SF FLEX options, he would <u>buy 1 PHLX 59 SF Call and sell 1 PHLX 61 SF Call</u> to create the collar.
