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 $125 per share, and the price of a 3-month call option at an exercise price of $125 is $6.93
a. If the risk-free interest rate is 5% per year, what must be the price of a 3-month put option on P.U.T.T. stock at an exercise price of $140?

b. What would be a simple options strategy to exploit your conviction about the stock price

Answer:

A) according to put call parity:

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

put = $6.93 - $125 + [$140 / (1 + 5%)¹/⁴] = $6.93 - $125 +$138.30 = $20.23

B)

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

the total cost of the investment = $6.93 + $20.23 = $27.16, this way you can make a profit if the stock price increases higher than $125 + $20.23 = $145.23 or decreases below than $125 - $20.23 = $104.77

In 1970 Professor Fellswoop earned $12,000; in 1980 he earned $24,000; and in 1990 he earned $36,000. If the CPI was 40 in 1970,
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

In 1980

Explanation:

Year        Salary        Percentage Salary Increase        CPI Increase

1970       $12,000     -                                                      -

1980       $24,000    100                                                 50

1990       $36,000    50                                                   83.3

As can be seen in the table, the Professor's salary increase from 1970 to 1980 was twice as much as the CPI increase during the same period.

On the contrary, his salary increase from 1980 to 1990 was significantly less than the CPI increase during the same period.

Therefore, the professor's salary was highest in 1980.
