Textbook Question
Chapter 1.3, Problem 5P
Mary is labeling tick marks on a number line. Starting at a tick mark labeled 4.90, she labels the next tick marks to the right with 4.91, 4.92, 4.93, …., 4.99. Then she labels the next tick mark to the right of 4.99 with 4.100. Mary then says that 4.100 is greater than 4.99 .
- Discuss what error Mary is making. Why might Mary make this error?
- Describe how you might help Mary understand her error and how to correct it.

We consider the one-period model studied in class as an example. Namely, we assumethat the current stock price is S0 = 10. At time T, the stock has either moved up toSt = 12 (with probability p = 0.6) or down towards St = 8 (with probability 1−p = 0.4).We consider a call option on this stock with maturity T and strike price K = 10. Theinterest rate on the money market is zero.As in class, we assume that you, as a customer, are willing to buy the call option on100 shares of stock for $120. The investor, who sold you the option, can adopt one of thefollowing strategies: Strategy 1: (seen in class) Buy 50 shares of stock and borrow $380. Strategy 2: Buy 55 shares of stock and borrow $430. Strategy 3: Buy 60 shares of stock and borrow $480. Strategy 4: Buy 40 shares of stock and borrow $280.(a) For each of strategies 2-4, describe the value of the investor’s portfolio at time 0,and at time T for each possible movement of the stock.(b) For each of strategies 2-4, does the investor have…
