Answer: 6.40%

Explanation:

Use Excel to calculate this by the formula;

= RATE(Nper,Pmt,-Pv,Fv)

Nper is number of periods = 20 * 2 = 40 semi annual periods

Pmt is the payment = $6%/2 * 1,000 = $30

Pv is the present value = $955

Fv is future value or face value = $1,000

= RATE (40,60,-955,1000)

= 3.20% * 2 (because this is a semi annual rate)

= 6.40%

Annette [7]

Answer:

The answer is NO.

Explanation:

The answer is NO since the tax cut does not equate or rather would not be an effective stimulus due to the fact that debt reduction would not stimulate or increase consumption.

To properly understand the narrative of the question and the answer herein, let us define what effective stimulus is.

Effective stimulus or as preferably known as An economic stimulus is the utilization of funds or design of that helps agitate growth during downtime or recession in a country. The decision makers of a country mostly utilize the tactics of giving rebates and  increasing government expenses to name a few.

Now relating it back to the question, since the intention of the rebate is to ease payment on tax does not equate to increase in consumption, the answer is a NO.

You are attempting to value a call option with an exercise price of $100 and one year to expiration. The underlying stock pays n
natka813 [3]

Answer:

$18.18

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the call option's value using the two-state stock price model

Based on the information given since the two possible stock prices are: S+ = $130 Increase and and S- = $70 decrease which means that If the exercise price is the amount of $100 the first step will be to determine the corresponding two possible call values.

First step is to determine the corresponding two possible call values.

Hence, the corresponding two possible call values are:

Cu = ($130-$100) and Cd = $0

Cu = $30 and Cd = $0

Second step is to Calculate the hedge ratio using this formula

Hedge ratio= (Cu - Cd)/(uS0 - dS0)

Hedge ratio= (30- 0)/(130 - 70)

Hedge ratio=30/60

Hedge ratio= 0.50

Third step is form the cost of the riskless portfolio and end-of-year value

Cost of the riskless portfolio = (S0 - 2C0)

Cost of the riskless portfolio = 100 - 2C0

End-of-year value =$70

Fourth step is to calculate the present value of $70 with a one-year interest rate of 10%:

Present value=$70/1.10

Present value= $63.64

Now let estimate the call option's value by first Setting the value of the hedged position to equal to the present value

Call option's value=$100 - 2C0 = $63.64

Hence,

C0=$100-$63.64/2

C0=$36.36/2

C0=$18.18

Therefore the call option's value using the two-state stock price model will be $18.18
