In July 2012, a small chocolate factory receives a large order for chocolate bars to be delivered in November. The spot price fo

r Cocoa is $2,400 per metric ton. It will need 10 metric tons of Cocoa in September to fill this order. Because of limited storage capacity and volatility in the world cocoa prices, the company decides the best strategy is to buy 10 call options for $53 each with strike price of $2,400 (equal to the current price) with a maturity date of September 2012. When the options expire in September, how much will the company pay (including the cost of the options) for cocoa if the spot price in September proves to be $2,600

Answer:

$24,530, $23,530

Explanation:

Incomplete word <em>"and if the spot price in September proves to be $2,300."</em>

<em />

Note that Call options will be exercised only if the price on expiry is greater than strike price

Strike price = $2400

Premium paid = $53 for each contract, so the total premium paid = $530 for 10 contracts

<u>CASE 1</u>

Price = $2600

As price on expiry=2600 > Strike price=2400

Call option will be exercised.

Company will pay = $2400 * 10+530 = $24,530

<u>CASE 2</u>

Price = $2300

As price on expiry=2300 < Strike price=2400

Call option will not be exercised and will purchase from open market

Company will pay = $2300 * 10+530 = $23,530

Karolina [17]

Answer:

It is 15.68 times

Explanation:

Price-Earnings Ratio = Market Price per share (MPS)/Earning per share (EPS).

Where EPS = $231,971 /55,100

                   = $4.21

Hence, Price-Earnings Ratio = 66/4.21

                                               =15.68 times

P/E ratio shows the expectations of the market and is the price you  pay per unit of current earnings.

The  ratio is as well being used for valuing companies and to find out whether they are overvalued or undervalued most especially by the investors.
