Answer: b. The instrument is correlated with x1.

d. The instrument does not directly influence y, except through x1.

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the necessary characteristics of a suitable instrument include:

• The instrument is correlated with x1.

• The instrument does not directly influence y, except through x1.

Some of the criteria for an instrument variable are the fact that it should have a causal effect on independent variable and also the dependent variable isn't directly affected except through the independent variable which is x1 in this scenario.

Therefore, the correct option are B and D.

The common stock of the P.U.T.T. Corporation has been trading in a narrow price range for the past month, and you are convinced
mariarad [96]

Answer:

A) according to put call parity:

price of put option = call option - stock price + [future value / (1 + risk free rate)ⁿ]

put = $8.89 - $120 + [$120 / (1 + 8%)¹/⁴] = $8.89 - $120 +$117.71 = $6.60

B) you have to purchase both a put and call option ⇒ straddle

the total cost of the investment = $8.89 + $6.60 = $15.496, this way you can make a profit if the stock price increases higher than $120 + $6.60 = $126.60 or decreases below than $120 - $6.60 = $113.40
