Under long bull call spread, call option will lower strike price is bought and call option with higher strike price is sold simultaneously.
Call option is the right to buy the underlying asset at a specified price on a future date.
Since the market price at maturity is lower than the strike price, the call options will not be exercised as it is better to buy from the market.
Profit = Premium received – premium paid
= $1.50-$2.50
= -$1.0
Hence, the answer is A.
