Derst Inc. sells a particular textbook for $140. Variable expenses are $25 per book. At the current volume of 6,000 books sold p
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Selling price of a product = $140 per textbook

Variable expenses = $25 per book

Books sold per year = 6,000 books (It is the break even point)

The break even point indicates that there is no profit or loss incurred at the sales.

This means that the sales revenue is equal to the total cost incurred to produced these goods.

Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit - Fixed costs per unit = 0

$140 - $25 - Fixed costs = 0

$115 = Fixed costs per unit

Therefore, the total amount of fixed cost is calculated as follows:

= Fixed cost per unit × Number of books sold

= $115 × 6,000

= $690,000

An American-style call option with six months to maturity has a strike price of $35. The underlying stock now sells for $43. The
Travka [436]

Answer:

a) $8

b) $4

c) Decrease

Explanation:

Background.

A call option as you probably know, is an agreement to buy an asset on or before a particular day at a price already determined in the agreement.

a) the Intrinsic value of the option is the market price minus the strike price.

Intrinsic Value = Market Price - Strike price

= $43 - $35

= $8 per share.

It is worthy of note that for an option, of the intrinsic value dips into negative figures it is just said to be 0.

b) To calculate the time value, we subtract the intrinsic value from the call premium

= Call Premium - Intrinsic value

= $12 - $8

= $4

c) The call option has 6 months to maturity and the dividends are to come in 3 months. Share prices usually drop after a dividend has been paid so because the call option matures in 6 months, the price of the call option will DECREASE owing to the Expected drop in stock price.
