Question 3. A 1-year European put option on a stock with strike price of $50 is quoted as $7; a 1-year European call option on the same stock with strike price $30 is quoted as $5. Suppose you long one put and short one call (one option is on 100 share).

A small school has 100 students. You have been commissioned school photographer.

1. You have been offered to photograph a model action shot for a salary of $100 on the same day as the school photos are scheduled. You can’t do both. What is the limited resource, and as what kind of cost do you consider the missed salary of this photoshoot?

2. Without calculating, do you think parents’ price elasticity of demand for photos of their children is generally speaking price-elastic or price-inelastic (or neither/both)? Give your reason.

3. Since you are the only commissioned school photographer, you are a monopolist for this job. Suppose that you want to charge a uniform price per copy (i.e. be a single-price monopolist). From experience, you know that parents’ demand for copies of each child’s photograph is as given in the table below. Your marginal cost is constant at $2.00 per copy.

a. How much will you charge to maximise your profit? How many copies per child will you sell? Include the steps of your calculations.

b. What is your profit from this job? Show your calculations.

c. How much is the parents’ consumer surplus? Show your calculations.

The following information pertains to Company A's Year 1 inventory activities:

For each of the following independent assumptions regarding Company A's inventory cost flow methods, click on the associated designated cell and enter the applicable dollar value of inventory that would be reported in Company A's December 31, Year 1, balance sheet. Enter all amounts as positive values. Round all amounts to the nearest dollar. If the amount is zero, enter a zero (0).

What is the percentage change in price for a zero coupon bond if the yield changes from 8.5% to 8​%? The bond has a face value of ​$1,000 and it matures in 15 years. Use the price determined from the first​ yield, 8.5​%, as the base in the percentage calculation. The percentage change in the bond price if the yield changes from 8.5​% to 8​% is ​____%. ​(Round to two decimal​ places.)

What is the percentage price change for a zero coupon bond if its YTM changes from 3.9% to 4.6%? The bond's face value is $1,000 and it matures in 8 years. Use the price determined from the first yield, 3.9%, as the base in the percentage calculation. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent. (e.g., 4.32% = 4.3). ​[Hint: If the price dropped, enter a negative number].

What is the percentage price change for a zero coupon bond if its YTM changes from 3.7% to 4.9%? The bond's face value is $1,000 and it matures in 7 years. Use the price determined from the first yield, 3.7%, as the base in the percentage calculation. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent. (e.g., 4.32% = 4.3). [Hint: If the price dropped, enter a negative number].

Complete each problem on a separate worksheet in a single Excel file. Rename the separate worksheets with the respective problem number. You may have to copy and paste the datasets into your homework file first. Name the file with your last name, first initial, and HW #2. Label each part of the question. When calculating statistics, label your outputs. Use the Solver add-in for these problems.

1. For a telephone survey, a marketing research group needs to contact at least 600 wives, 480 husbands, 400 single adult males, and 440 single adult females. It costs $3 to make a daytime call, and (because of higher labor costs) $5 to make an evening call. Problem #1 lists the results that can be expected. For example, 30% of all daytime calls are answered by a wife, 15% of all evening calls are answered by a single male, and 40% of all daytime calls are not answered at all. Due to limited staff, at most 40% of all calls can be evening calls.

1. Determine how to minimize the cost of completing the survey.
2. Use SolverTable to investigate changes in the unit cost of either type of call. Specifically, investigate changes in the cost of a daytime call, with the cost of an evening call fixed, to see when (if ever) only daytime calls or only evening calls will be made. Then repeat the analysis by changing the cost of an evening call and keeping the cost of a daytime call fixed.

The number of infants who die before their first birthday is much higher in the United States than in other countries, and for African-Americans the rate is nearly twice as high as for white Americans. Even well-educated African American women have birth outcomes worse than white women who haven’t finished high school. Why?

We meet Andrea Jackson, a successful lawyer, executive, and mother. When Andrea was pregnant with her first child, she, like so many others, did her best to ensure a healthy baby; she ate right, exercised, abstained from alcohol and smoking, and received good prenatal care. Yet 2.5 months before her due date, she went into labor unexpectedly. Her newborn weighed less than 3 pounds. Andrea and her husband were devastated. How could this have happened?

We know that, in general, health follows wealth; on average, the higher on the socioeconomic ladder you are, the lower your risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, infant death, and preterm deliveries. For highly educated African American women like Andrea, the advantages of income and status do make a difference in health, but something else is still in play: racism.

There are several issues to consider about this case:

How may have Andrea’s race and culture played a role in her having a low-birth-weight baby?

Are there any culture-specific protective factors that may have helped Andrea cope with the racism she has faced?
