Explanation / Answer

18. Call price , c = $0.02 Per unit

Strike price , x = $0.78

Spot price , s = $0.80

Since current price is more than strike price , holder of call option will exercise the option.

Hence payoff payable = S - X = $0.80 - $0.78 = $0.09

Net profit from call option = Premium received - Payoff paid

= $0.02 - $0.09

= -$0.07 Per unit

Total loss = 10,000 units * -$0.07 Per unit = -$700

19 . Answers: Economic value of capital

Economic value of capital is the current net worth of the company based on market values .

20 . Put option price , p = $0.04

Strike price, X = $0.84

Current price, S = $0.80

Since current price is less than strike price, the holder of the put option will exercise the put option.

Payoff paid = X - S = $0.84 - $0.80 = $0.04 Per unit

Net profit = Premium received - Payoff paid

= $0.04 - $0.04 = $0

Total profit = 10,000 units * $0 Per unit = $0
