Answer:

The perfect and perhaps most commonly known is former U.S. President Richard Nixon.

Explanation:

Nixon was President of the United States from 1969 to 1974, he was elected for two periods, but he only finished one and less than half the other one. The reason is that he was embroiled in the Watergate scandal: an espionage campaign of the Democratic Party from Republican officials, including Nixon himself.

With these acts, Nixon, as the highest public official in the nation, failed to show probity, and dishonored the office of the president. He was quick to renounce the presidency, and would have faced legal challenges if not for his Vice President, Gerald Ford, who became president as his replacement, and issued him a presidential pardon immediately after.

A company wishes to hedge its exposure to a new fuel whose price changes have a 0.6 correlation with gasoline futures price chan
Anton [14]

Answer:

0.9; 100 million; 90 million; 2,143

Explanation:

The new fuel's price change has a standard deviation that is 50% greater than price changes in gasoline futures prices.

So, if standard deviation of future prices is taken as '1' then for spot price it will be 50% higher, i.e 1.5

The hedge ratio:

= Correlation × (standard deviation of spot price ÷ Standard deviation of future prices)

= 0.6 × (1.5 ÷ 1)

= 0.9

The company has an exposure of 100 million gallons of the new fuel.

Gallons in future gasoline:

= Hedge ratio × 100 million gallons of the new fuel

= 0.9 × 100

= 90 million

Each contract is on 42,000 gallons, then

Number of gasoline futures contracts should be traded:

= 90,000,000 ÷ 42,000

= 2,142.9 or 2,143
