Reconsider the determination of the hedge ratio in the two-state model where we showed that one-third share of stock would hedge one option. The possible end-of-year stock prices, uS0 = $85 (up state) and dS0 = $42 (down state). a. What would be the call option hedge ratio for each of the following exercise prices: $85, $70, $52, $42, given the possible end-of-year stock prices, uS0 = $85 (up state) and dS0 = $42 (down state)? (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)

Anew firm is developing its business plan. it will require $615,000 of assets, and it projects $450,000 of sales and $355,000 of operating costs for the first year. management is reasonably sure of these numbers because of contracts with its customers and suppliers. it can borrow at a rate of 7.5%, but the bank requires it to have a tie of at least 4.0, and if the tie falls below this level the bank will call in the loan and the firm will go bankrupt. what is the maximum debt ratio the firm can use? (hint: find the maximum dollars of interest, then the debt that produces that interest, and then the related debt ratio.)a. 41.94%b. 44.15%c. 46.47%d. 48.92%e. 51.49%
