Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

$200. Since XYZ is trading at 72, a November 65 call has an intrinsic value of $700. A sale at that value compared to the cost of $300 is a profit of $400. Subtract the loss of $200 on the expired put to obtain the profit of $200.

Potential capital appreciation definitely sounds familiar; I think that's the main reason people invest in raw land!

I feel like deferred income could be a possibility, but it doesn't sound right for raw land specifically.

I remember something about large deductions, but that seems more relevant to other types of investments.

I think the reward for investing in raw land might be related to capital appreciation, but I'm not entirely sure.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know raw land can be a speculative investment, but I'm not sure if any of these answers fully capture the potential rewards. I may need to do some more research before answering.

I got this! The answer is definitely C - potential capital appreciation. Investing in raw land is all about betting on the land increasing in value over time as the area develops. Easy peasy.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully. Could it be A - deferred income? Or maybe B - large deductions? I'll have to review my notes on real estate investing.

Ugh, this is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards C, but I'm not totally confident. I know raw land can be risky, so I don't think D - lack of investment risk is the right answer.

Investing in raw land? Sounds like a great way to end up with a plot of dirt and a whole lot of headaches. Where do I sign up?!

A) deferred income makes the most sense to me. You don't typically get an immediate return on raw land, but the long-term potential is there.

C) potential capital appreciation seems like the most obvious answer here. Raw land can appreciate in value over time as the surrounding area develops.
