Ludmilka [50]2 years ago

Answer: $25000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Betty made a 20% profit on a residential lot she sold for $30,000. Let the cost price of the property be represented by x.

Therefore, (100% + 20%) of x = $30000. This means that 120% of x = $30000.

120% × x = $30000

1.2x = $30000

x = $30000/1.2

x = $25000

Therefore, the amount paid for the property is $25000

A trader buys a call option with a strike price of $30 for $3. Does the trader ever exercise the option and lose money on the tr
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The trader exercises the option and loses money on the trade if the stock price is between $30 and $33 at option maturity.  

Explanation:

A call option is the right to buy an asset at an agreed price on the maturity date. This agreed price is known as the strike price.

In the given scenario, the strike price is $30. The trader pays an additional $3 for the right to exercise the option, thus paying a total of $33 for the option.

Now, if the asset price on maturity date is greater than $30, the trader shall exercise the option and buy the asset. This is because the market price of the asset is greater than the price the trader pays for it, resulting in a favorable situation for the trader.

However, the trader paid a total of $33 for the stock. Hence, the trader shall lose money on the trade as long as the asset price is below $33.

Therefore,  if the asset price upon maturity is between $30 and $33, the trader shall exercise the option but lose money on the trade.

<u>The contract has just started </u>and the information available doesn't meet the criteria.
