According to the put-call parity theorem, the payoffs associated with ownership of a call option can be replicated by . shorting the underlying stock, borrowing the present value of the exercise price, and writing a put on the same underlying stock and with the same exercise price buying the underlying stock, borrowing the present value of the exercise price, and buying a put on the same underlying stock and with the same exercise price buying the underlying stock, borrowing the present value of the exercise price, and writing a put on the same underlying stock and with the same exercise price shorting the underlying stock, lending the present value of the exercise price and buying a put on the same underlying stock and with the same exercise price

Shrieves casting company is considering adding a new line to its product mix, and the capital budgeting analysis is being conducted by sidney johnson, a recently graduated mba. the production line would be set up in unused space in the main plant. the machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional $30,000 to install the equipment. the machinery has an economic life of 4 years, and shrieves has obtained a special tax ruling that places the equipment in the macrs 3-year class. the machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of use. the new line would generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding depreciation. each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. the sales price and cost are both expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation. further, to handle the new line, the firm’s net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales revenues. the firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of capital, which is the risk-adjusted cost of capital for an average project (r), is 10%. define “incremental cash flow.” (1) should you subtract interest expense or dividends when calculating project cash flow?

Suppose the real risk-free rate and inflation rate are expected to remain at their current levels throughout the foreseeable future. consider all factors that affect the yield curve. then identify which of the following shapes that the u. s. treasury yield curve can take. check all that apply.
