You bought a call option on € with an exercise price of $2 and you paid $0.05/€ as premium. At the same time, you sold a put on € with an exercise price of $2 and you received $0.12/€ as premium. a. What is your profit/loss if ST = $1.94/€? b. What is your profit/loss if ST = $1.99/€? c. What is your profit/loss if ST = $2.10/€?
Solution:
Given,
Exercise price of option on € (both Call and Put) is $2
Premium for Call option on € = $0.05/€
Premium for Put option on € = $0.12/€
Computation of Profit/Loss:
Profit / (Loss) = Difference in price from call or put - Call premium - Put Premium
Case 1: if ST - $1.94/ €:
Profit / (Loss) per € = {$2 - $1.94) - $0.05 - $0.12
= - $0.11.
Case 2: if ST - $1.99/ €:
Profit / (Loss) per € = {$2 - $1.99) - $0.05 - $0.12
= - $0.16.
Case 3: if ST - $2.10/ €:
Profit / (Loss) per € = {$2.10 - $2) - $0.05 - $0.12
= - $0.07.
