Enter your answer correct to 3 significant digits. Answer:arrow_forwardTick all statements which are correct, but do not tick those that are incorrect. a. A forward contract gives you the right but not the obligation to buy a certain product at a specified time in the future for a fixed price. b. An American put option should always be exercised before its expiry time. C. The price of a put option and of a call option with the same expiration time and strike price can never be the same. d. If there is a sporting event with 3 different outcomes with corresponding odds equal to o₁ = 2,02 = 2, and 03 = opportunity for a suitable betting strategy. = 3, then there is an arbitrage e. If there is arbitrage, then a risk-neutral distribution exists.arrow_forward
