Crank

Answer:

1 ABC Jan 100 Call

Explanation:

Although the OCC does not usually adjust the strike price of listed options for regular quarterly cash dividends. This is because they are known quantity that are segmented by the market into options premium.

For special cash dividends, they are not a frequent event hence market does not recognize them. This special cash dividend is $10 per share × 100 shares = $1,000 value per contract. It therefore means that the $1,000 value per contract will be adjusted.

The new strike price will be

= 110 - 10 cash dividend

= 100. It also means that the number of shares covered by the contract does not change.

Refer to the information in Homework 2 Question 2: Ross derives utility from only two goods, chocolates (x) and donuts (y). His

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The total effect is 35 out of which income effect is 15 and substitution effect is 20.

Explanation:

Ross has an income of $1440.

The price of chocolates (Px) is $10 and donuts (Py) is $9.

The utility function is given as

U = 0.5xy

Before price rise, Budget line:

1440 = 10x + 9y,

Consumption is optimal when

$\frac{MUx }{ MUy} = \frac{Px}{Py} = \frac{10}{9} = 1.11$

0.5y / 0.5x= 1.11

y = 1.11x

Substituting in budget line,

1440 = 10x + 9y = 10x + 9(1.11x)

1440 = 10x + 9.99x

19.99x = 1440

x = 72

y = 1.11x = 79.92 = 80

After price rise,

Py = 16.

New budget line:

1440 = 10x + 16y,

Price ratio

$\frac{Px}{Py } = /$

= $\frac{10}{16}$

= 0.625

And,

$\frac{MUx}{Muy} = \frac{0.5y}{0.5x} = 0.625$

$\frac{y}{x} = 0.625$

y = 0.625x

Substituting in new budget line: 1440 = 10x + 16y

1440 = 10x + 16(0.625)x

1440 = 20x

X = 72

Y = 0.625x = 45

So, total effect (TE)

= Decrease in consumption of y

= 80 - 45

= 35

With previous (x, y) bundle,

U = 0.5xy

U = 0.5 x 72 x 80

U = 2880

Keeping utility level the same & substituting,

y = 0.625x in utility function:

28800 = 0.5xy

$2880 = 0.5\ \times\ 0.625x$

$2880 = 0.3125x^{2}$

$x^{2} = \frac{2880}{0.3125}$

$x^{2} = 9216$

$x = \sqrt{9216}$

x = 96

Now, putting the value of x,

y = $0.625\ \times\ x$

y = $0.625\ \times\ 96$

y = 60

Substitution effect (SE)

= 80 - 60

= 20

Income effect

= TE - SE

= 35 - 20

= 15

Sheridan Company has two divisions; Sporting Goods and Sports Gear. The sales mix is 65% for Sporting Goods and 35% for Sports G

BigorU [14]

Answer:

b. $19500000.

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of sales on which business has no profit no loss situation. The business only covers the variable and fixed cost at this point.

Total Contribution can be determined by calculating adding estimated contribution of each division.

Total Contribution ratio = (65% x 30%) + (35% x 50%) = 19.5% + 17.5% = 37%

Fixed cost = $7,215,000

Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio = $7,215,000 / 37% = $19,500,000
