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.

The firm is an all-equity firm with assets worth $350 million and 100 million shares outstanding. It plans to borrow $100 million and use these funds to repurchase shares. The firm’s marginal corporate tax is 21%, and it plans to keep its outstanding debt equal to $100 million permanently. If the firm manages to repurchase shares at $4 per share, what is the per share value of equity for the leveraged firm? A) $2.71 per share B) $3.5 per share C) $3.61 per share D) $3.71 per share E) $4 per share
Answer:
B) $3.5 per share
Explanation:
Assets = Existing assets + Tax shield
= $350 million + 21% * $100 million
= $371 million
Equity = Asset - Debt
= $371 million - $100 million
= $271 million
The Shares are repurchase at $4
At this price, the firm would have 100 - 100/4 = 75 million shares outstanding .
Worth of shares outstanding = Equity / Outstanding shares
Worth of shares outstanding = ($271 million / 75 million shares)
Worth of shares outstanding = $3.61 per shares
The principle that each World Trade Organization member must accord to all other member countries tariff treatment no less favorable than it provides to any other country is known as the __________ principle.
Answer:
Most favoured nation principle
Explanation:
Most favoured nation (MFN) clause of the World Trade Organisation requires that when a nation trades with others the concessions, immunities, and privileges granted to one nation should be the the same granted to all WTO members.
It discourages discrimination where one nation in international trade is favoured above another.
For example if Ghana reduces tariff on trades with South Africa it is expected that tariffs to other WTO nations will also be reduced to 3%.
Exceptions to this principle are for developing nations, regional free trade areas, and custom unions.
Steady Company's stock has a beta of . If the risk-free rate is and the market risk premium is , what is an estimate of Steady Company's cost of equity?
The question is incomplete as it misses the figures. The following is the complete question.
Steady Company's stock has a beta of 0.21. If the risk-free rate is 6.2% and the market risk premium is 6.9%, what is an estimate of Steady Company's cost of equity?
Answer:
The cost of equity is 0.07649 or 7.649%
Explanation:
The required rate of return or cost of equity capital is the rate required by the investors to invest in a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as measure by the beta. The required rate of return or cost of equity can be calculated using the CAPM equation. The CAPM equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRf is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on marketr = 0.062 + 0.21 * 0.069
r = 0.07649 or 7.649%
All of the following statements regarding convertible bonds are true except:_________.
A. Holders of convertible bonds can generally decide whether to convert to stock.
B. Holders of convertible bonds have the potential to profit from increases in stock price.
C. Holders of convertible bonds can choose when to convert to stock.
D. Holders of convertible bonds have the option to not convert and continue receiving bond interest payments and par value at maturity.
E. Holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion.
Answer: Holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion
Explanation:
A convertible bond is a debt security that yields the payment of interest, but can also be converted into equity shares or common stock that are predetermined.
The option that holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion is wrong. This is because the number I shares that will be eventually converted will already have been fixed.

Answer:
The correct answer is: Closed Shop.
Explanation:
To begin with, the name of "Closed Shop" refers to a type of practice well known as "pre-entry closed shop" too that unions favored with the only purpose to obligate the companies to contract workers who are already members of the union itself so in that situation both the company and the union tend to have an agreement of maintaining certain salary price for the workers so they are not in a continous fight. Moreover, this practice allow the workers to be employed by the company only if they are members of the union and as long as they are members of it.

You purchased a stock at a price of $48.98. The stock paid a dividend of $1.63 per share and the stock price at the end of the year was $54.12. What was the total return for the year? Multiple Choice 13.82% 10.49% 13.17% 12.51% 3.33%
Answer:
13.82%
Explanation:
The computation of total return for the year is shown below:-
Total return = (End value - Beginning value + Dividend) ÷ Beginning value
= ($54.12 - $48.98 + $1.63) ÷ $48.98
= 6.77 ÷ $48.98
= 0.13821
or
= 13.82%
Therefore for computing the total return we simply applied the above formula by considering all the information given in the question
Question 7 of 10 How much should you save each year for maintenance on your home? $500 Whatever your home inspector recommends 7% of your gross income At least 1% of the purchase price
Answer: At least 1% of the purchase price
Explanation:
The 1% rule is a popular practice that estimates that 1% of a house´s purchase price should be expected to be required for maintenance every year. This is the case for a house that is less than five years old. Houses between 5 and 25 years old could range between a 1 and 4% annual maintenance budget, depending also on its location, the market, its size, and the impact of the weather.
Venture Capital Corporation loans Wally $15,000 to start a new business.Wally does not pay,but Venture fails to sue within the time prescribed by the applicable statute of limitations.Wally's promise to pay the debt even though recovery is barred:_________
A) needs new consideration.
B) needs no consideration.
C) is unenforceable regardless of any consideration.
D) needs legally sufficient and adequate consideration.
Answer:
B) needs no consideration.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Wally's promise to pay the debt even though recovery is barred needs no consideration. This is mainly due to the fact that the Corporation failed to sue within the statute of limitation that was set. Meaning they can no longer sue Wally in order to recover the loan that was given to him. If they were to try and sue Wally now the lawsuit would just be dismissed with no consideration given.
Which of these conditions helped establish the foundation for a market revolution in the United States
Question Completion:
Choices: Rapid improvements in transportation and communication; the production of goods for a cash market; and the use of inventions and innovations to produce goods for a mass market.
Answer:
The condition that helped to establish the foundation for a market revolution in the United States is:
Rapid improvements in transportation and communication
Explanation:
Rapid improvements in transportation and communication spurred innovations. With innovations, capitalism was born. Innovations needed factories for mass production. In turn, according to American History, "factories and mass production increasingly displaced individual artisans and farmers," who survived at subsistent levels. Large farms grew and produced crops for distant markets, no longer only for family and local markets. Most of the crops were further processed, packaged, preserved, and shipped through cheap transportation systems like the Erie Canal, using steamboats. And the rest, they say, is history.

Explanation:
An annuity provides for 30 annual payments. The first payment of 100 is made immediately and the remaining payments increase by 8 percent per annum. Interest is calculated at 13.4 percent per annum. Calculate the present value of this annuity.
Answer:
$1423.38
Explanation:
number of payments ( number of years )(n) = 30
first payment = $100
interest calculated at : 13.4 % = 0.134
increment rate : 8 percent = 0.08
we can calculate the present value using this Equation
= (p / (r-g)) * [1 - [(1+g)/(1+r)]^n ]
where :
p / (r-g) = 100 / (0.134 - 0.08 ) = $1852
[1 - ((1+g)/(1+r)]^n ) = (1 - ((1.08/1.134)^30 ) = 0.7686
hence the present value of this annuity = $1852 * 0.7686 = $1423.38
Note :
p ( first principal payment ) = $100
r ( calculated interest ) = 13.4% = 0.134
g ( increment interest ) = 8 % = 0.08

Answer:
Best case
Price 2,640
Variable cost per unit 352
Fixed cost 1.28 million
Quantity 108,000 units
Worst case
Price 1,760
Variable cost per unit 528
Fixed cost 1.92 million
Quantity 72,000 units
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the best case expenses would be 20% lower while the incomes will be 20% higher.
Calculation for the price
Price = 2,200 ×(1+0.20)
Price=2,200×1.2
Price = 2,640
Calculation for Variable cost per unit
Variable cost per unit = 440× (1-0.20)
Variable cost per unit=440×0.80
Variable cost per unit= 352
Calculation for fixed cost
Fixed cost = 1.60 million ×(1-0.20)
Fixed cost=1.60 million× 0.80
Fixed cost= 1.28 million
Calculation for the Quantity
Quantity = 90,000 × (1+0.20)
Quantity =90,000×1.2
Quantity=108,000units
Therefore, Best case will be:
Price 2,640
Variable cost per unit 352
Fixed cost 1.28 million
Quantity 108,000units
Based on the information given in the worst case expenses would be 20% higher while incomes would be 20% lower.
Calculation for the price
Price = 2,200 × (1-0.20) = 1080
Price=2,200 ×0.8
Price=1,760
Calculation for the Variable cost per unit
Variable cost per unit = 440 × (1+0.20)
Variable cost per unit=440× 1.2
Variable cost per unit= 528
Calculation for Fixed cost
Fixed cost = 1.60 million × (1+0.20)
Fixed cost=1.60 million×1.2
Fixed cost= 1.92 million
Calculation for the Quatity
Quantity = 90,000 ×(1-0.20)
Quantity=90,000×0.8
Quantity= 72,000 units
Therefore Worst case will be:
Price 1,760
Variable cost per unit 528
Fixed cost 1.92 million
Quantity 72,000 units
An increase in taxes when the economy is above full employment ______ aggregate demand and real GDP, and the price level ______.
Question options :
A. increases; falls
B. decreases; falls
C. does not change; does not change
D. increases; rises
Answer:
B. decreases; falls
Explanation:
let us understand this by looking at the logic behind it. First when the economy is at full employment, there is high demand since there will be increase in money supply through increased circulation from salaries and wages. If government increases taxes, this will reduce purchasing power as money supply will be reduced and therefore demand will be reduced. Also price will fall since according to the Law of demand and supply, if demand is more than supply, price will increase
The monetary value of a homemaker's time CANNOT be estimated by
A. comparing the value of the services to the spouse's wage rate.
B. measuring the marginal value of the services by the homemaker's wage rate received in a part-time job.
C. measuring the services in terms of current market prices.
D. measuring the value of the services by looking at the homemaker's opportunity costs.
Answer: measuring the services in terms of current market prices
Explanation:
Based on the information that has been provided in the question, it should be noted that the monetary value of a homemaker's time can be estimated by
comparing the value of the services to the spouse's wage rate, measuring the marginal value of the services by the homemaker's wage rate received in a part-time job and also measuring the value of the services by looking at the homemaker's opportunity costs.
Therefore, the option that measuring the services in terms of current market prices is not estimated.

Kartman Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Per Unit Direct materials 6.5 pounds $ 7.00 per pound $ 45.50 Direct labor 0.6 hours $ 24.00 per hour $ 14.40 Variable overhead 0.6 hours $ 4.00 per hour $ 2.40 In June the company's budgeted production was 3,400 units but the actual production was 3,500 units. The company used 22,150 pounds of the direct material and 2,290 direct labor-hours to produce this output. During the month, the company purchased 25,400 pounds of the direct material at a cost of $170,180. The actual direct labor cost was $57,021 and the actual variable overhead cost was $8,931. The company applies variable overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. The labor efficiency variance for June is:
Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $4,560 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard= Direct labor 0.6 hours $ 24.00 per hour $ 14.40
Actual production= 3,500 units.
2,290 direct labor-hours were used.
To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 3,500*0.6= 2,100
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (2,100 - 2,290)*24
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $4,560 unfavorable
The labor efficiency variance is $4,560 unfavorable.
Calculation of the labor efficiency variance:The following formula should be used for determining the same.
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Here,
Standard quantity= 3,500*0.6= 2,100
So,
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (2,100 - 2,290)*24
= $4,560 unfavorable

lower
Carlos
Deborah
Explanation:
a person has comparative advantage in production if he / she produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other people
for carlos
the opportunity cost of producing rye = 6 / 18 = 0.33
the opportunity cost of producing corn = 18 / 6 = 3
for Deborah,
the opportunity cost of producing rye = 7 / 28 = 0.25
the opportunity cost of producing corn = 28 /7 =4
Carlos has a comparative advantage in the production of corn because he produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with Deborah
Deborah has a comparative advantage in the production of rye because he produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with Carlos
A person has absolute advantage in production if he produces more quantity of the product when compared to other people.

What is Oligopoly?A market structure known as an oligopoly has a limited number of enterprises, none of which can prevent the others from having a large impact. The market share of the major companies is calculated using the concentration ratio.
A market with a monopoly has only one producer, a duopoly has two businesses, and an oligopoly has three or more businesses. The maximum number of firms in an oligopoly is unknown, but it must be low enough so that each firm's actions have a significant impact on the others.
In the past, oligopolies have existed in the steel industry, the oil industry, the railroad industry, the tire industry, grocery store chains, and the wireless industry. An oligopoly can prevent new competitors from entering the market, stifle innovation, and raise prices, all of which are detrimental to consumers.

1. A research project began with the selection of women who had recently had abdominal surgery. The project matched those women with controls and continued with measurements of abdominal muscle strength for both groups every three months for a year. This project was: A. Prospective study B. Retrospective study C. Experimental study D. Cross sectional study
Answer:
Abdominal rectus diastasis is a condition where the abdominal muscles are separated by an abnormal distance due to widening of the linea alba causing the abdominal content to bulge. It is commonly acquired in pregnancies and with larger weight gains. Even though many patients suffer from the condition, treatment options are poorly investigated including the effect of physiotherapy and surgical treatment. The symptoms include pain and discomfort in the abdomen, musculoskeletal and urogynecological problems in addition to negative body image and impaired quality of life. The purpose of this review was to give an overview of treatment options for abdominal rectus diastasis.
Results: The first treatment step is physiotherapy. However, evidence is lacking on which regimen to use and success rates are not stated. The next step is surgery, either open or laparoscopic, and both surgical approaches have high success rates. The surgical approach includes different plication techniques. The recurrence and complication rates are low, complications are minor, and repair improves low back pain, urinary incontinence, and quality of life. Robotic assisted surgery might become a possibility in the near future, but data are still lacking.
Conclusions: Evidence on what conservatory treatment to use is sparse, and more research needs to be done. Both open and laparoscopic surgery have shown positive results. Innovative treatment by robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery has potential, however, more research needs to be done in this area as well. An international guideline for the treatment of rectus diastasis could be beneficial for patients and clinicians.
