■ Yegi’s Fine Phones has a current stock price of $30. You need to findthe value of a call option with a strike price of $32 that expires in3 months. Use the binomial model with one period until expiration(i.e., t = 0.25 and n= 1). The factor for an increase in stock price isu = 1.15; the factor for a downward movement is d = 0.85. Whatare the possible stock prices at expiration? ($34.50 or $25.50)What are the option’s possible payoffs at expiration? ($2.50 or$0) What are pu and pd? (0.5422 and 0.4429) What is the currentvalue of the option (assume each month is 1/12 of a year)? ($1.36)
Suppose that you plan to invest in stock A, because you believe that stock A will appreciate in the next 6 months. The stock current price is $100, and a call option on stock A expiring in 6 months has an exercise price of $100 selling at $15 per option. And you have $7500 in hand to invest the following three strategies: A: Invest entirely in stock A. B: Invest entirely in call option on stock A. C: Buy call options the amount of calls is same as the number of shares we purchase in strategy A, and invest the remaining money in T-bills at interest rate whose annual interest rate is 10%. Suppose that the possible stock price are $90, $100, $110, and $120. (a) At expiration (after 6 months), compute the rates of return for each strategy given different possible stock prices. We don't consider the premium we’ve paid for holding call options in this case. (b) Given different stock price at expiration, which strategy would you like to choose? For example, if the stock price is $90, which…
With formulas, no tables Exploring six-month call and put options for a stock with an exercise price of $20 and a call premium of $4 per contract, your consideration involves the potential purchase of 20 call options. Let's analyze the following scenarios: a) In the context of contemplating the acquisition of 20 call options, visualize the profit and losses at the expiration date of your position, disregarding any transaction costs. Calculate the potential gain if the stock price stands at $20 in six months. Determine the break-even point and assess the potential gain if the stock price rises to $27 in six months. b) Examine the profit and losses for the writer (seller) of the call option. What constitutes the maximum profit for the call writer, and what represents the maximum loss for the call writer? c) Shift attention to a put option for the same stock, sharing the same strike price and maturity, traded on the market at a price of $3. Present the profit and losses at the expiration…
