Explanation:
Given : Budgeted Sales $112,900,000
Fixed Costs $25,000,000
Variable Costs $66,611,000
Contribution margin = Net Sales - Variable costs

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
