Solution
15
Option | Expiry | Strike | CMP of Stock | ITM/OTM |
Call | June | 4 | 6.4 | In the money |
Call | Sept | 7 | 6.4 | Out of money |
Put | Sept | 8 | 6.4 | In the money |
Put | Dec | 11 | 6.4 | In the money |
16
Option | Expiry | Strike (A) | Price of Call (B) | CMP of Stock = C | Interinsic Value (C-A) = D | Time Value B-D |
Call | June | 4 | 2.9 | 6.4 | 2.4 | 0.5 |
17
Option | Expiry | Strike (A) | Price of Put (B) | CMP of Stock C | Interinsic Value (A-C) |
Put | Sept | 8 | 2.35 | 6.4 | 1.6 |
18
Yes the Put option is worth excercising
We will get a payoff from put option of (8-7.8) = 0.20
which is more than the current premium of 0,10
19
Strike price of the call option is 4
Current price of the stock is 7.2
We will ger a payoff of (7.2 - 4) = 3.2 from this call option
Premium paid on 10 calls (2.75*10) | 27.5 |
Payoff from 10 calls (3.2*10) | 32 |
Profit (32-27.5) | 4.5 |
