Answer:

Buy 0.8 shares for each option purchased

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What is necessary to hedge the position

Using this formula

N=Vu-Vd/U-D

U = stock price in case of an up move = $36

D = stock price in case of an down move = $26

VU = put option value if stock goes up = $0

VU = put option value if stock goes down = $32 - $26 = $6

Using this formula

N=

Now let calculate What is necessary to hedge the position

Value =74 x + 6

Hence,

90x=74x + 6,

x=6/(90-74)

x=6/16

x=.375

The effects of ____ are not sufficiently strong to manipulate consumers, alter their preferences, or make the ad more memorable,
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Subliminal stimuli

Explanation:

Subliminal stimuli is defined as a stimulus that is below the sensory capacity of an individual. It is below the threshold where the individual can perceive that there is a change in something. For example if a company is producing potato chips and they want to increase salt content.

The point at which the consumer starts to notice a change in salt content of the potatoe chips is above the subliminal stimuli.

Although subliminal stimuli is not readily perceived it can unconciously influence consumer behaviour.
