A stock is trading at $58. You believe there is a 70% chance the price of the stock will increase by 10% over the next 3 months.
MAXImum [283]

Answer: $498

Explanation:

A Put is an option that will only be exercised if the price of the underlying security which is the stock in this case, falls below the current price of $58.

This means that we will not include the 70% chance of increase in our calculation.

In a contract, there are 100 shares.

Expected profit = Contract price - (Prob. of dropping by 10% * 10% of stock) - (Prob. of dropping by 20% * 20% of stock)

= 730 - ( 20% * 10% * 58 * 100) - (10% * 20% * 58 * 100)

= 730 - 116 - 116

= $498

20. Which of the following is not a difference between monopolies and perfectly competitive markets? a. Monopolies can earn prof
Naily [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market has a large number of buyers and sellers. The firms are price takers and the price is determined by the market forces. Thus the monopoly firms face a horizontal demand curve. This horizontal line represents price, average revenue, and marginal revenue. The equilibrium is obtained where price, (average revenue and marginal revenue) is equal to marginal cost. There is no restriction on entry and exit of firms in the long run. That's why firms face a break-even in the long run.  

While in a monopoly market there is a single firm. This firm fixes price higher than marginal cost. The demand curve of the monopoly is a downward sloping showing relatively elastic demand. A monopoly firm can earn profits in both the short run as well as the long run.
