The common stock of the P.U.T.T. Corporation has been trading in a narrow price range for the past month, and you are convinced

it is going to break far out of that range in the next 3 months. You do not know whether it will go up or down, however. The current price of the stock is $120 per share, and the price of a 3-month call option at an exercise price of $120 is $8.89. a. If the risk-free interest rate is 8% per year, what must be the price of a 3-month put option on P.U.T.T. stock at an exercise price of $120? (The stock pays no dividends.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. A straddle would be a simple options strategy to exploit your conviction about the stock price’s future movements. How far would it have to move in either direction for you to make a profit on your initial investment? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answer:

A) according to put call parity:

price of put option = call option - stock price + [future value / (1 + risk free rate)ⁿ]

put = $8.89 - $120 + [$120 / (1 + 8%)¹/⁴] = $8.89 - $120 +$117.71 = $6.60

B) you have to purchase both a put and call option ⇒ straddle

the total cost of the investment = $8.89 + $6.60 = $15.496, this way you can make a profit if the stock price increases higher than $120 + $6.60 = $126.60 or decreases below than $120 - $6.60 = $113.40

While Sally is still a minor, she wrecks the car she purchased from Bally. Can she still disaffirm the contract? Must she return
patriot [66]

Answer:

If Sally is still a minor, she can disaffirm the contract and return the car to Bally. Contracts involving minors are not legally binding unless the minor reaffirms them once he/she is an adult or a parent also signs the contract.

In this case, Sally's contract is voidable by her and if she chooses to, she is able to void it. What happens after she returns the car depends on the state. Some state laws force Bally to return the money even if the car is wrecked. Other states have laws that require minors to return goods in good shape, and in this case, would allow Bally to deduct any repair expenses from the money he needs to return to Sally.
