Assume that the current price of a stock is S0 = 100. An investor holds long one European put option with a strike price of K = 100 and short one European call option with strike K = 105. Both options mature at the same time T. Assume that the stock price at maturity is ST = 102. What is the payoff to the investor? Select one: a. 2 b. 1 c. 0 d. -1 e. -2 f. None of the above

Consider a European call on Procter and Gamble stock (PG) that expires in one period. The current stock price is $120, the strike price is $130, and the risk-free rate is 5%. Assume that PG stock will either go up to $150 (probability = .4), or go down to $90 (probability = .6). Construct a replicating portfolio based on shares of PG stock and a position in a risk-free asset, and compute the price of the call option.
Let C be the price of a call option that enables its holder to buy one share of a stock at an exercise price K at time t; also, let P be the price of a European put option that enables its holder to sale one share or the stock for the amount K at time t. Let S be the price of the stock at time 0. Then, assuming that interest is continuously discounted at a nominal rate r, either S+P-C=Ke-rt or there is an arbitrage opportunity. Question: How do I verify that the strategy of selling one share of stock, selling one put option, and buying one call option always results in a positive win if S+P-C>Ke-rt ?

Suppose S = $98, K = $100, u = 1.08, d = 0.94 a one period put option with delta of -0.10000 should sell for $1.41 but it selling in the market for $1.47. this leads to an arbitrage opportunity that can be accomplished by selling 0.10000 units of stocks invested at $80.00 for one period at the rate of 1.04 and selling the put. Does this lead to arbitrage profits?
A European call option has a strike price of K and maturity of T. If the stock price at the maturity is ST, what is the payoff from a short position in this call option (without considering the option price)? Group of answer choices: Max(K - ST, 0) -Max(ST - K, 0) -Max(K - ST, 0) Max(ST - K, 0)
Consider a 11-period binomial model with R=1.02, S0 = 100, and u= 1.05. Compute the value of a European call option on the stock with strike K = 102. The stock does not pay dividends.
