Summary Introduction
To discuss: Ways the options contract in order to replace the insurance.
Introduction:
Insurance and options are the different types of instruments. Insurance is a protection from the financial losses against fire, theft, or natural disaster. It is one of the popular instruments, which prevent potential loss of an individual or a company with a minimal cost.
The option is a derivative instrument that provides an option to hedge the risk from an asset. Hence, this is a highly sophisticated derivative instrument, which includes call option and put option.

Depending on whether or not she gets the city to build a new stadium, the owner of a pro-basketball team expects the team to be worth either $270 million next year or $120 million. There is a 60 percent chance she will get a new stadium. There is a buyer willing to pay $180 million for the team right now. However, the buyer will keep his offer open—until the stadium issue is resolved—if offered some form of compensation. If the interest rate is 5 percent, how much should she be willing to pay the potential buyer for a one-year option to sell the team (in million, for illustration, if the answer is $21,553,100, then you should answer 21.5531)?arrow_forward
- 6) Over the past 40 years, interest rates have varied widely. The rate for a 30-year mortgage reached a high of 14.75% in July 1984, and it reached 3.31% in November 2012. A significant impact of lower interest rates on society is that they enable more people to afford the purchase of a home. In the following exercise, we consider the purchase of a home that sells for $125,000. Assume that we can make a down payment of $25,000, so we need to borrow $100,000. We assume that our annual income is $35,000 and that we have no other debt. If we can afford to pay a monthly amount of $566.67, determine how much we can borrow if the term is 30 years and the interest rate is at the historic high of 14.75%. (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) $ Can we afford the home? Yes No If we can afford to pay a monthly amount of $566.67, determine how much we can borrow if the term is 30 years and the interest rate is 3.31%.
