The cash for the short sell remains in the dealer’s account andcannot be used to fund other investments. In addition, Lily puts up $50 ascollateral. According to the information above, what is the position’sleverage?
选项:
A. 2
B. 4
C. 3
D. 1
解释:
考点:对Leverage的理解
答案:本题选A
解析:
Lily的Asset有200,有50元的Cash,以及150 due from broker,150里面有100是Short Stock A获得的,50是Collateral。
Lily的Equity为100,因此Leverage ratio = 2.
就说Lilu 1-有100 cash 2-卖空了100股票,为此支付了50元cash的抵押,所以有150元钱待收取 3-然后2中提及的50元不能被使用 4所以是100+150-50=200总asset
