Answer:
d. If Cazden's stock price rose by $5, the exercise value of the options with $25 strike price would also increase by $5.
Explanation:
A call option confers a right, not an obligation upon the call buyer to buy a security at a pre determined price, known as exercise price or strike price at a future date.
A call buyer would exercise his right only in the scenarios wherein the strike price is lesser than the current market price on maturity.
Profit of a call buyer is given by = CMP as on expiry - Exercise/Strike price - Option premium paid
wherein CMP= Current Market Price
A call option is "in the money" when it's strike price is less than it's current market price. In the given case, it means if the CMP today represents CMP upon expiry, call buyer would exercise his right and his gain would be $5 i.e $30 - $25.
Since the $25 exercise option is "in the money", an increase in stock price by $5 will also increase the strike price by $5.

The official unemployment rate includes people who do not have a job but are able to take a job and are currently seeking one.
People with part time jobs are considered employed.
Littleville has 1,000 residents, 600 are employed = 400 do not work but how many are considered unemployed:
400 - 240 (under age 16) - 10 (institutionalized) - 100 (are not looking for work, including students and homemakers) = 50 unemployed
Littleville's unemployment rate = number of unemployed / total labor force = 50 / (600 + 50) = 50 / 650 = 7.69%
