At the end of March, Paul’s Painting hired five temporary employees to work on a project that began on April 5 and ended on April 28. Paul’s received 100% of the total payment for the project on May 3. In this situation, both cash basis accounting and GAAP require that Paul’s recognize the employees’ total salary expense in April.

Answer: $498
Explanation:
A Put is an option that will only be exercised if the price of the underlying security which is the stock in this case, falls below the current price of $58.
This means that we will not include the 70% chance of increase in our calculation.
In a contract, there are 100 shares.
Expected profit = Contract price - (Prob. of dropping by 10% * 10% of stock) - (Prob. of dropping by 20% * 20% of stock)
= 730 - ( 20% * 10% * 58 * 100) - (10% * 20% * 58 * 100)
= 730 - 116 - 116
= $498
