The correct explanation is option (a), "short selling stock-index futures contracts".
<h3>What is short selling stock-index futures contracts?</h3>
When you buy a futures contract to "short sell," you are doing so with the intention of selling it later at a lower (ideally) price. Unlike the stock market, there is no requirement for financing.
The working of short selling stock-index future contracts is-
- The concept is to obtain anything you don't already own on loan, sell it, and then return it.
- Even though you will now receive the funds, you still owe the money you borrowed.
- You eventually have to return it.
- You make money if you can later purchase it for a lower price.
The future contract can be shorted by-
- By locking in a price through the directional hedge known as shorting the basis, any asset price changes are effectively eliminated until the futures contract expires.
- When shorting the basis, a long hedger prefers a narrowing in the basis.

Answer:
It increases by 50 units.
Explanation:
Current break even point = 
Here, fixed cost = $4,500
Contribution per unit = Selling price - Variable Cost = $20 - $10 = $10
Current break even point = 
If variable cost increase by 10% then revised variable cost = $10 + 10% = $11
Contribution per unit = $20 - $11 = $9 per unit
Break even sales in units = 
Difference in original and revised break even = Revised - Original = 500 - 450 units = 50 units,
Thus original break even increases by 50 units, = 50/450 = 11.11% increase.
Final Answer
It increases by 50 units.
Answer:
Equivalent unit of conversion = Unit completed and transferred out+Ending WIP*Percent completion
= 15000+(3000*75%)
Equivalent unit of conversion = 17250
Total cost of conversion cost = 4500+32450+18710 = 55660
Cost per equivalent unit of conversion Cost = Total Cost/Equivalent unit = 55660/17250 = 3.23
