Assume a stock is selling for GH¢48.50 with options available at 40, 50, and 60 strike prices. The 50 call option price is at 2.75. a. What is the intrinsic value of the 50 call? b. Is the 50 call in the money? c. Are the 40 and 60 call options in the money?

Use the binomal option pricing model to estimate the Call price.               Stock price (S)  $120.00            Stock price up (Su)  $170.00            Stock price down (Sd)  $50.00            Strike price (K)  $120.00            rf 1.0%                                       Call price up (Cu)             Call price down (Cd)                           D             PV(B)                           Call price (C)

Whats the profit of the "Bearish Put Spread" when stock price is $25, $30, $35, $40, $45, $50, $55, $60, and $65 respectively? Given:  - Stock price = $45.00 - Current option price = 7.0 (put 35) - Current option price = 2.0 (put 45) - Exercise Price = $40.00

A stock is trading at $300 per share and a call option with strike $300 is priced $10 per share. If hedge ratio is 0.4, what's the call option elasticity? A. -20 B. -18 C. 15 D. 12

b) Suppose you are given the following information: Current market price of a share= R200 000 Option’s exercise price = R300 000 Time until the option expires= 5 yrs Risk free rate =4% Standard deviation of the returns on the share= 0.35 Required: i. Calculate d1 and d2 ii. Suppose N(d1) =0.7517 and N(d2) =0.4602; calculate the price of the call option on the share

Consider the 1-period binomial model with a bond with A(0) = 60 and A(1) = 70 and a stock with S(0) = 4X and S^u(1) 6Y and S^d(1) = 3Z. = 1. What is the price (payoff) C(1) of a call option with strike price 28? 2. same... with strike price 45? 3. same... with strike price 72? 4. Set up a system of linear equations to determine a replicating portfolio for the call option from part 2 (strike price 45). 5. Solve it and determine the price C(O). 6. Compute, tabulate, and plot the price C(O) as you vary the strike price of the option from 28, 29, ..., 71, 72.

A butterfly spread is a position in three options on the same underlying stock with different strikes. An investor buys one call with a strike K1 = 22, sells two calls with a strike K2 = 24 and buys one call with a strike K3 = 26. What is the payoff of the butterfly spread, if the stock price equals $26 at maturity?

Data: S0 = 120; X = 126; 1 + r = 1.05. The two possibilities for ST are 150 and 102. Required: a-1. The range of S is 48 while that of C is 24 across the two states. What is the hedge ratio of the call? Note: Round your answer to 2 decimal places. a-2. Calculate the value of a call option on the stock with an exercise price of 126. (Do not use continuous compounding to calculate the present value of X in this example because we are using a two-state model here; the assumed 5% interest rate is an effective rate per period.) Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

A stock price is currently $23. A butterfly spread (ie. options are bought with strike prices of K₁ and K3, and two options with the middle strike price K₂ are sold) is created from call options with strike prices of $20, $25, and $30. Which of the following is TRUE? Select one alternative: O It is incorrect to assume that there is always a gain when the stock price is greater than $30 or less than $20. O The loss when the stock price is greater than $30 is the same as the loss when the stock price is less than $20. The gain when the stock price is greater than $30 is greater than the gain when the stock price is less than $20. O The gain when the stock price is greater than $30 is less than the gain when the stock price is less than $20.
