Use the put-call parity relationship to demonstrate that an at-the-money call option on a nondividend-paying stock must cost more than an at-the-money put option. Show that the prices of the put and call will be equal if S0 = (1 + r)T..
Suppose you combine two option contracts as follows. You buy a call option on a stock with an exercise price of $65 for a premium of 9$. At the same time you sell a call option on the same stock with an exercise price of $75 for a premium of $4. Both calls expire at the same time. The stock sells currently at $72. Answer the following questions about this investment strategy:

An up-and-out barrier call option with barrier B, strike price K and exercise time T has payoff
H(T) = (S(T) − K) + if max {S(t)| 0 ≤ t ≤ T} < B,
0 otherwise,
that is, the payoff is that of a call option if the underlying stock price does not reach or exceed the barrier B at any time up to and including time T, and 0 otherwise.
For an up-and-out barrier call option with barrier B = 140, strike price K = 90 and exercise time T = 3 in the binomial model with parameters U = 0.2, D = −0.1, R = 0.1 and S(0) = 100 compute the following.
(a) The option price at time 0;
