Ivanhoe Limited purchased 50,000 call options during the year.
The options give the company the right to buy its own common shares
for $7 each. The average market price during the year was $10 per
share. Assume that Ivanhoe also wrote put options that allow the
holder to sell 50,000 of Ivanhoe’s shares to Ivanhoe at $11 per
share.
Calculate the incremental shares outstanding for Ivanhoe
Limited.
Long call Option Strike price given is = $7
Long Call Option excercised = 50,000
Note* Average market price during the year > long call option strike price therefore long call option will be excercised
Short call option strike price is = $11
Average market price = $10
Note* In this situation Average market price is < short call option therefore no short call option is excercised.
Incremental shares outstanding = Long call option Excercised - Short call Excercised
= 50,000 - 0 = 50,000
Therefore, incremental shares outstanding of crane limited are 50,000
