(a) You have bought the right to buy a BHP share for $40 in 6 months.

(b) You have bought the right to sell a BHP share for $40 in 6 months.

(c) You have bought the obligation to sell a BHP share for $40 in 6 months.

(d) You have sold the right that allows your counterparty to buy a BHP share from you for $40 in 6 months. This means that you have the obligation to sell a BHP share to your counterparty for $40 in 6 months if he wants to buy it.

(e) You have sold the right that allows your counterparty to sell a BHP share to you for $40 in 6 months. This means that you have the obligation to buy a BHP share from your counterparty for $40 in 6 months if he wants to sell it.

(b) $171.14

(c) $173.33

(d) $174.56

(e) $354.06

(a) This firm's expected capital return equals zero.

(b) This firm's expected total return and income return are equal.

(c) This firm's forward looking PE ratio will equal the inverse of the firm's expected income return.

(d) This firm's forward looking PE ratio will equal the inverse of the firm's expected capital return.

(e) This firm's forward looking PE ratio is equal to the expected payback period, which is the time it will take for the sum of the cash flows to equal the share price.

Australians usually quote the Australian dollar in USD per 1 AUD. For example, in October 2015 the Australian dollar was quoted as 0.72 USD per AUD. Is this an or terms quote?

You own a debt asset. Are you a or a ?

(a) Daily trading volume is 3 contracts, open interest is 3 contracts.

(b) Daily trading volume is 3 contracts, open interest is 2 contracts.

(c) Daily trading volume is 3 contracts, open interest is 1 contract.

(d) Daily trading volume is 2 contracts, open interest is 3 contracts.

(e) Daily trading volume is 2 contracts, open interest is 2 contracts.

(a) The geometric average of the gross discrete returns (GAGDR) equals 1 which is 100%.

(b) ##\text{GAGDR} = \exp \left( \text{AALGDR} \right)##. The GAGDR is equal to the natural exponent of the arithmetic average of the logarithms of the gross discrete returns (AALGDR).

(c) ##\text{GAGDR} = \left( P_T/P_0 \right)^{1/T}##. The GAGDR equals the ratio of the last and first prices raised to the power of the inverse of the number of time periods between them.

(d) ##\text{LGAGDR} = \text{AALGDR}##. This is always true, regardless of the distribution of the prices or returns and the number of return observations. The logarithm of the geometric average of the gross discrete returns (LGAGDR) is always equal to the arithmetic average of the logarithms of the gross discrete returns (AALGDR).

(e) ##\text{LAAGDR} = \text{AALGDR} + \text{SDLGDR}^2/2##. This is always true, regardless of the distribution of the prices or returns and the number of return observations. The logarithm of the arithmetic average of the gross discrete returns (LAAGDR) equals the arithmetic average of the logarithms of the gross discrete returns (AALGDR) plus half the variance of the LGDR's.

(a) Debt assets.

(b) Debt funding.

(c) Equity assets.

(d) Equity funding.

(e) None of the above.
