Answer:
The answer is option (c) Short 34 contracts
Explanation:
Solution:
Given that
The information about the portfolio is as stated below:
The value of the portfolio = $8.5 million
The beta = 1.3
The future contract of S&P price = $1310
The size of contract = 250
Now,
To hedge the risk completely, the desired beta is =0
Thus,
The number of contracts is calculated as follows:
The Number of contract = (desired beta - portfolio beta)*portfolio value/(future price*contract size)
So,
The number of contracts = (0 - 1.3)*8500000/(1310*250) = -34
Then,
The negative sign means it is going short.
Hence,
A total of 340 contracts must be short.

Answer:
There is no correct answer is these options. But the correct answer is $113.41
Explanation:
The formula to solve this is:
Po = D1/r - g
Po is the Current price of the common stock
D1 is the future dividend payment
r is the rate of return
g is the growth rate.
This is quite different from the usual(single stage). This is Two-stage Dividend Discount Model. To solve this;
D1(Dividend in year 1) is $3.15( $2.42 x 1.3)
D2(Dividend in year 2) is $3.78(3.15 x 1.2)
D3(Dividend in year 3) is $4.15($3.78 x 1.1)
D in subsequent years is $4.36(4.15 x 1.05)
P3(price of stock in year 3) = $4.36/0.083 - 0.05
=$132.12
Now the stock's current market value is
$3.15/1.08 + $3.78/1.08^2 + $4.15/1.08^3 + $132.12^3
The price of the stock is $113.41
By definition, empirical probability is equal to C. Number of successful trials/Total number of trials.
<h3>What is an empirical probability?</h3>
It should be noted that empirical probability simply means a experimental probability that is based on historical data.
In this case, by definition, empirical probability is equal to the number of successful trials divided by the total number of trials.

c. $500
Explanation:
A contract is an agreement by two or more parties to perform a.certain activity within a given time.

However ABC is still liable to pay the balance of $500
