g) European call with a strike price of $40 costs $7. European put with the same strike price and expiration date costs $6. Assume that you buy two calls and one put (strap strategy). Sketch the graph and write down functions of payoff and profit h) Consider a stock with a price of $50 and there is European put option on that stock with the strike of $55 and premium of $4. Assume that you buy 1/3 of a stock...
You simultaneously write a put and buy a call, both with strike prices of $50, naked, i.e., without any position in the underlying stock. What are the expiration date payoffs to this position for stock prices of $40, $45, $50, $55, and $60? (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no cells blank- be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Omit the "S" sign in your response.) Stock Call Payoff Total Payof Price $40 $ $45 $...
3. (10 pts) For each k e [0, 1,2,..., 301 the symbol S(k) denotes the price of the stock at time k. A European call option with strike 90 and expiration n- 30 costs 15. A European put option with strike 100 and expiration 30 costs 11. Both options have the same stock as their underlying security.

(5 pts) Suppose I sell 5 PUT option contracts on Home Depot with a strike price of $180.00 and an option premium of $19. The stock price is $209.45 when I sell the put and moves between $199.24 and $215.43 during the time up to expiration. What is my maximum profit or loss on this? (5 pts) Using the date in question 13, what would my maximum profit or loss be if the price of Home Depot stock moved from...
Problem 12. A European call and put option on a stock both have a strike price of $30 and an expiration date in three months. The price of the call is $3, and the price of the put is $2.25. The risk free interest rate is 10% per annum, the current stock price is $31. Indentify the arbitrage opportunity open to a trader.
9. Put-call parity and the value of a put option Aa Aa E Consider two portfolios A and B. At the expiration date, t, both portfolios have identical payoffs. Portfolio A consists of a put option and one share of stock. Portfolio B has a call option (with the same strike price and expiration date as the put option) and cash in the amount equal to the present value (PV) of the strike price discounted at the continuously compounded risk-free...
A call option on a stock with a strike price of $60 costs $8. A put option on the same stock with the same strike price costs $6. They both expire in 1 year. (a) How can these two options be used to create a straddle? (b) What is the initial investment? (c) Construct a table showing how the payoff and profit varies with ST in 1 year, for the straddle that you constructed. Whenever you need to refer to...

5. Consider a call and a put option, both with strike price of $30 and 3 months to expiration. The call trades at $5, the put price is $6, the interest rate is 0, and the price of the underlying stock is $29. (1) Suppose the stock does not pay dividends. Is there an arbitrage? If so, write down the sequence of trades and calculate the arbitrage profit you realize in 3 months. If not, explain why not. (2) Suppose...
