Answer: B. 1 DEF Jan 50 Call

Explanation:

The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) acting under its mandate of being an issuer and guarantor for options and futures contracts can alter options prices but does not do so for prices based on normal dividends as they are more regular and their effects are already accounted for in the price of the call.

When a company calls a one-time special cash dividend, this is new to the market which would not have incorporated it into the price of the call. The OCC will then adjust the price to account for this.

In this case it will do so by subtracting the dividend from the call;

= 55 - 5

= $50

The customer will then have 1 DEF Jan 50 Call .

The demand for ben &amp; jerry's ice cream will likely be ________ the demand for dessert.
kotykmax [81]

The demand for ben & jerry's ice cream will likely be more price elastic than the demand for dessert.

<h3>What is the elasticity of Demand?</h3>

When all other conditions are equal, the elasticity of demand is a concept in economics that quantifies how responsive consumers are to shifts in the quantity desired as a result of a price adjustment. In other words, it demonstrates the number of things consumers are willing to buy as the cost of those products rises or falls.

By dividing the percentage change in quantity by the percentage change in price during a specific period, the elasticity of the demand formula is computed. It appears as follows:

Elasticity is defined as % change in quantity / % change in price.

The quantity demanded as a result of a percentage change in a product's price is hence the measure of demand elasticity. Demand can be elastic or inelastic depending on whether products' demand is more responsive to price fluctuations. When a product's demand is flexible, the desired quality is extremely responsive to price variations. When a product's demand is rigid, the desired quality does not adapt well to price variations.

Therefore, The demand for ben & jerry's ice cream will likely be more elastic than the demand for dessert.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

<em>1.  In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Explanation:

<em><u>Question has been attached here</u></em>

Unemployment is the term used to define those who are willing and are actively seeking work but cannot find any. A minimum wage is a price control, in the form of a price floor imposed by government legislation in order to protect laborers from low wages. Paying anything below the minimum wage is against the law.

<em>1. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

A minimum wage is binding only if it is set above the equilibrium price. In this scenario, the equilibrium price is at $12. Hence, $9 is not binding since a shortage of labor would gradually raise the price to the equilibrium.

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

When there is a shortage in the market, it means that the quantity supplied is higher than the quantity demanded. With any particular commodity such as bread or rice, a shortage creates a rise in price. Just as that, a shortage of workers creates an upward pressure on the price (wage). Since there are no price ceilings, market will reach equilibrium.

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

As shown in the diagram, the market equilibrium is $12. If the minimum wage was $12.50, there would be a surplus of labor (quantity supplied is higher than quantity demanded). Naturally, this may cause a downward pressure on wages until it reaches $12. However, when a minimum wage is imposed at $12.50, it cannot fall below that level. Thus, the market will not reach the equilibrium.

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Frictional unemployment is a type of unemployment that occurs when workers are temporarily unemployed while switching between jobs. It is normal and occurs even in the healthiest of economies. A binding minimum wage is more likely to cause structural unemployment. This occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of the labor force and the skills expected to be possessed by employers to do a particular job. Hence, even if jobs are available, the laborers are not suited to do them and thus are unemployed.
