For P350.25 you could buy a 5-month put option giving you the right to sell 100 shares at a price of P94.00 per share. If you bought a 100-share contract for P350.25 and  BVCl Inc.’s stock price actually dropped to P75.00, what would be your net profit (after transactions costs but before taxes)? Format: 1,111.11
