= 324,235.441659

Tju [1.3M]

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 .

A ___ in the money supply will cause interest rates to decrease which in turn causes spending to come ?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

decrease/decrease

Explanation:

The interest rate is a monetary mechanism that serves to keep inflation under control. Inflation is a monetary phenomenon, caused by excess currency in circulation. Thus, the more money in circulation, the higher the interest rate tends to be. Conversely, when the money supply is smaller, inflation will be lower. Consequently, the interest rate will be low. Similarly, when the money supply is high, spending on the economy increases (and causes inflation). When the money supply is low, less money will be in circulation and spending will decrease. Inflation will be low. And the interest rate too!
