Answer:

The price of put option is $2.51

Explanation:

The relation between the European Put option and Call option is called the Put-Call parity. Put-Call parity will be employed to solve the question

According to Put-Call parity, P = c - Sо + Ke^(-n) + D. Where P=Put Option price, C=Value of one European call option share. Sо = Underlying stock price,  D=Dividend, r=risk free rate, t = maturity period

Value of one European call option share = $2

Underlying stock price = $29

Dividend = $0.50

Risk free rate = 10%

Maturity period = 6 month & 2 month, 5 month when expecting dividend

P = c - Sо + Ke^(-n) + D

P = $2 - $29 + [$30 * e^[-0.10*(6/12)] + [$0.50*e^(-0.10*(2/12) + $0.50*e^(-0.10*(5/12)]

P = $2 - $29+($30*0.951229) + ($0.50*0.983471 + $0.50*0.959189)

P = -$27 + $28.5369 + $0.4917 + $0.4796

P = $2.5082

P = $2.51

Therefore, the price of put option is $2.51

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

d. within the relevant range of operating activity, the efficiency of operations can change.

Explanation:

Cost-volume-profit analysis is also known as the break even analysis, it is an important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is. It is used to determine how changes in differing levels of activities such as costs and volume affect a company's operating income and net income.

Generally, to use the cost-volume-profit analysis, financial experts usually make some assumptions and these are;

1. Sales price per unit product is kept constant.

2. Variable costs per unit product are kept constant and the total fixed costs of production are kept constant i.e costs can be divided into fixed and variable components.

3. All the units produced are sold i.e there is no change in inventory quantities during the period.

5. The costs accrued are as a result of change in business activities.

6. A company selling more than a product should simply sell in the same mix i.e the sales mix is constant.

<em>Hence, the aforementioned are assumptions of cost-volume-profit analysis except that, within the relevant range of operating activity, the efficiency of operations can change.</em>

The difference between a divine command view and authoritarian view is that the authority figure is different. true or false?
taurus [48]

The difference between a divine command view and authoritarian view is that the authority figure is different-Yes the statement holds true

Explanation:

<u>In a Divine Command of View</u>

we often come across statement like -"I would do what God or the scriptures say is right'

As per this point of view the  right and wrong are determined by a supernatural supreme being, whose will we discern from sacred texts and divinely inspired messengers.

<u>Authoritarian View</u>

An example of Authoritarian view is sentence like " I would follow the advise of an authority"

According to this view  the  right and wrong is decided by the authorities.The power of taking decision rest in the hands of a particular authority.

Downside of this view is that : authorities do not always reflect wisdom and not all authorities agree.

As you can see that the difference between the two view point is the authority figure.So the answer is True

Think of a business idea that offers opportunity for customer credit. Assuming that you want to adopt this idea, what criteria w
mezya [45]

Answer:

an example for a company that offers back customers credit is Jimmy Johns, they have online rewards that you can sign up with you or phone number or online to earn points for your meals. When you sign up they promote you to go buy a sandwich for your first free sandwich, after that every time you come back and buy something you will be racking up points for free things like sandwiches, chips, cookies, pickles, and drinks.They also have special offers like on your birthday you get a free sub (and after you sign up).  If I wanted to do something similar with my business I make would make a rewards systems where you earn points for discounts.

Explanation:

Identify a business idea with which you can proceed. For example, you start a business that designs and creates landscaping for customers (front garden space, back patio, and so on).

This type of business provides opportunity for consumer credit, as most people would not want to pay a huge amount upfront in cash or even through credit cards.

Since the only other way is to offer credit facility, you will have to make a list of questions. You will then have to research the customer’s credit worthiness.

Check for the customer’s credit rating with the credit- and information-management companies, such as TransUnion or Equifax.

Check for the customers’ current financial positions. You can do so by finding out whether they have a secure job or a well-performing business, number of earning members in the family, and so on.

Depending on the information you acquire, you may decide either to offer complete credit, with a relatively shorter credit period, or only offer a certain percentage of credit spread across a wider credit period.

Calip Corporation, a merchandising company, reported the following results for October: Sales $427,000 Cost of goods sold (all v
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: $222,800

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $427,000

Cost of goods sold (all variable) = $173,400

Total variable selling expense = $21,200

Total fixed selling expense = $18,900

Total variable administrative expense = $9,600

Total fixed administrative expense = $36,300

Variable expenses:

= Cost of goods sold + Variable selling expense + Variable administrative expense

= $173,400 + $21,200 + $9,600

= $204,200

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses

                                  = $427,000 - $204,200  

                                 = $222,800

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

-$130,000

Explanation:

The computation of the net loss deducted from his return is shown below:

= Income - interest deductions - operating expenses - depreciation expenses

= $20,000 - $80,000 - $45,000 - $25,000

= $20,000 - $150,000

= -$130,000

We simply deduct the revenues from the expenses so that the net income or net loss could come
