Answer: $17.71

Explanation:

Calculation of delta = (90 - 74) + (75 - 74) / 90 - 75

= 16 + 1 / 15

= 1.13

Calculation of futurevalue of portfolio = (90 * 1.13) - 16 = 85.7

Present value of portfolio = 85.7 / 1.03 = 83.20

Present value of delta share = 74 * 1.13 = 65.49

Value paid by call holder = 83.20 - 65.49 = 17.7

<span>Breached. Explanation: A contract is a legally binding agreement between two parties. Once an agreement is signed between two parties, both parties are subject to terms and conditions written in the agreement. As in the above example, Flora agrees to sell harvesters grocery a minimum quantity of fresh fruits and vegetables every week for three months, that means Flora is subject to the agreement that she will sell that no matter what the future market price will be, whether it increases or decreases. As Flora decides not to deliver the agreed order, it is a violation of terms and conditions of the agreement/contract. So the contract is breached.</span>

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The answer is: Debit Salary and wages expense $9,900, Debit Salaries and wages payable $37,900, Credit Cash $47,800

Explanation: Since the company has $37,900 sitting in salaries and wages payable account at the end of the month and the payroll revealed that actual amount to be paid is $47,800, this means the company has a shortfall of $9,900 from the salaries and wages payable account. Therefore, this amount that was not accrued for would impact salary and wages expense by $9,900.

Is coke and pepsi a duopoly
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Rivalry between Coca-Cola and PepsiCo is not a form of warfare: it is a competitive oligopoly. We might even say it’s a duopoly because the two firms control almost the entire market for soda-flavoured colas.

JTM Ltd incurs costs of $16 per unit ($12 variable, $4 fixed) for a widget it sells for $22. JTM has received two special offers
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

We must analyze the potential benefits of choosing one order or the other one:

Current JTM costs:

  • $12 variable per unit
  • $4 fixed per unit

If JTM accepts Firm A's order its fixed costs will not vary and it will be able to increase its profits by: ($17 - $12) x 10,000 = $50,000

Since JTM doesn't have the capacity to fulfill Firm B's order with their current cost structure, if it decides to take it, its variable or fixed costs (we don't know which) will probably increase, so its contribution margin will no longer be $5, as with Firm A's order, but will probably be lower. We are not told by how much the costs would increase.

The third alternative is to accept Firm B's offer and not sell 2,000 units through its normal distribution channels, but that would result in an increase in profits but also loss of normal profits:

($5 x 14,000 units) - ($6 x 2,000 units for the lost normal profits) = $70,000 -  $12,000 = $58,000. If JTM is able to cancel the sale of 2,000 units, then Firm B's offer would increase its profits by $58,000, $8,000 more than Firm A's order, but it depends on its ability to cancel or not the normal sales.
