Call option:
A call option is an agreement that gives the buyer the right to buy a stock at a pre-specified price (known as exercise price or strike price) within a pre-specified period. The stock on which the call option is provided is called the underlying asset.
Pay off from a call option:
The payoff from a call contract for its holder is the current price of the underlying asset less the strike price. So, lower the strike price compared to the current price of the underlying asset, higher is the value of the call option. In other words, the worth of call options increases with the difference between the price of underlying asset and the strike price where the stock price of underlying asset is more than the strike price. And the worth of a call option dictates the purchase price of a call option. More worthy the call option, higher will be its purchase price.
When the strike price is more than the stock price, the exercise of call option will cause negative cash flow. So, in that case, call option is not exercised and causes zero payoff.
Profit from a call option:
The profit from a call contract for its holder is the payoff from a call option less its purchase price, paid earlier.
To compute:
- The payoff and profits for call option when strike price is $70.
Answer to Problem 4PS

Put option:
A put option is an agreement that gives the buyer the right to sell a stock at a pre-specified price (known as exercise price or strike price) within a pre-specified period. The stock on which the put option is provided is called the underlying asset.
Pay off from a put option:
The payoff from a put option contract for its holder is the strike price less the current price of the underlying asset. So, higher the strike price compared to the current price of the underlying asset, higher is the value of the put option. In other words, the worth of put options increases with the difference between the price of underlying asset and the strike price where the stock price of underlying asset is less than the strike price.

As an investor looking for protection against inflation, you are considering the purchase of inflation-adjusted bonds known as U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). With these securities, the face value (which is paid at maturity) and the bond interest rate (which is paid semiannually) is regularly adjusted to account for inflation. However, for this problem only, assume the semi-annual interest payment (called the bond dividend) remains the same. You purchased a 10-year $10,000 TIPS bond with dividend of 4% per year payable semiannually (i.e., $200 every 6 months). Assume there is no inflation adjustment for the first 5 years, but in years 6 through 10, the bond face value increases by $850 each year. You use an expected investment return of 11% per year compounded semiannually. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an…arrow_forward
