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

I bought an apartment with my boyfriend last year because we had been dating for 4 years and he proposed. In order to prepare, we saved up our money, asked the bank for their opinion on the best coarse of action financially, and we tried to decide how much of our savings we should use without being irresponsible.

Answer:
Mrs.Smith should continue to operate the business in the short run but shut down in the long run.
Explanation:
According to the shut down rule, at the profit-maximizing positive level of output, a business in a competitive market should continue to operate in the short-term if the price equals to or is greater than the average variable cost, but should shut down in the long term if the price is less than or equal to total cost. Here,
price = $8.10
avg variable cost = $8.00
avg total cost = $8.25
Mrs.Smith should continue to operate the business in the short run but shut down in the long run.
Answer:
$75
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much must the employee include in income from both these transactions in total
Customer price for property $500
Less: Gross profit (25%*$500) ($125)
($500-$125=$375)
Employee price ($300)
INCOME $75
($375-$300)
Customer price for service $150
Less: (20%*$150)max exclusion (30)
($150-$30=$120)
Employee price 120
INCOME 0
($120-$120=$0)
Therefore the amount that the employee must include in income from both these transactions in total is $75
