Exact statement of the question is:
<em>May 3, 2007, Leven Corp. negotiated a short-term loan of $685,000. The loan is due October 1, 2007, and carries a 6.86% interest rate. Use ordinary interest to calculate the interest. What is the total amount Leven would pay on the maturity date? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)</em>
Solution:
Fro 3rd May to October 1st. 2017 there are 151 days
But 365 days = 1 year
==> 151 days = 151× 1/365 =0.414 years
But we use 1 year as one term
==> 1year = 1T
==> T = 0.414
R= 6.86
P= 685000
A=?
We use formula for the term:
A= P
Where A= ammount at the end of term
P= Loan amount
R= Rate of interest
T= No. of terms
Putting values in this formula;
==> A= 685000×
==> A= 685000 × 1.02784938489=704076 $

Answer:
Sell the put option. The put option is better and advantageous .
Explanation:
The call option is trading far below the strike price and poses risk. The price may not go up to $1.25 and hence not advisable. The put option is better as we stand to make a profit margin ($1.15 / Euro) if it sells the put at he strike price immediately. Given that the difference is high, it is unlikely that the price will move against us and we shall exercise the option as soon as the margin starts reducing.
