Answer #1

As per Call Put Partiy

where r is the risk free rate of return i.e. 0.05

t is the time period 1

58 * e^(-0.05*1) + 9 = 56 + 5

58 * 0.9512294245 + 9 = 56 + 5

55.17 + 9 = 61

64.17 61

LHS > RHS

Call is over- valued it should be sold and Put is undervalued, so it should be bought, stock should also be bought.

So Option D is correct.
