A Put option with a strike price of $60 on a stock trading at $50 and expiring in one month’s time:
A. has zero time value
B. has zero intrinsic value
C. would trade for $10 in the options market
D. is in-the-money
Put option is the right to sell a specified share at a specified price in future
Option premium has two components - Intrinsic value and time value
Intrinsic value = Strike price - market price
= $60-$50
= $10
Since the option is exercisable after one month, time value will not be zero. It will have some value
Hence. options premium will be more than $10
in the money option means that the option will be exercised.
Hence, the answer is D. is in-the-money
since strike price is greater than market price
