Calculate the elasticity of a call option with a premium of $6.50 and a strike price of $61. The call has a hedge ratio of 0.7, and the underlying stock’s price is currently $47.

The Elasticity of the call option =

Explanation:

From the given information:

For $1 change in stock price

the percentage  of change in stock price = ΔS/S

ΔS/S = (1× 100)/47 = 2.127659574

ΔC = hedge ratio × ΔS

ΔC = 0.7 × 1

ΔC = 0.7

However , the percentage change in the stock call option price = ΔC/C

= (0.7 × 100) / 6.50

= 70/6.50

= 10.76923077

∴

The Elasticity of the call option =

The Elasticity of the call option =

The Elasticity of the call option =

       OR

The Price Elasticity of the call option can be computed by using EXCEL FUNCTION(=B3*(B4/B1))

The illustration to that can be seen in the diagram attached below.

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.
