Question

An investor implements a collar strategy by purchasing 100 shares of the Tesla stock at a price of $840 per share, selling 100 call options on the Tesla stock with a strike price $880 per share, and buying 100 put option on the Tesla with a strike price of $800. The premium of the call option is $35 per share and the premium of the put option is $32. At which stock price at the maturity of the option will the investor break even

Answer 1

Answer: $837

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Purchase price = $840 per share

Premium of call option = $35 per share

Premium of put option = $32 per share

From the above, the premium received will be:

= $35 - $32 = $3

Investors break even will then be:

= Purchase price - Premium received

= $840 - $3

= $837
