单项选择题
An analyst does research about margin transaction. An investor borrows $8000 to purchase 1000 shares of stock on margin, the price of a share is $20, the investor's leverage ratio is closest to:()
A. 0.40
B. 1.67
C. 2.50
答案
参考答案:B
解析:
本题考查基本定义。初始保证金比例是:(20×1000-8000)/20×1000=0.60,而杠杆比率是初始保证金比例的倒数,即1/0.60=1.67。注意:题目中的$8000是借款,实际上投资者投入了$12000购买了实际价值是$20000的股票。
