a.
Introduction: A call option is an option where a buyer has a right to purchase an asset for a specified price, on or before specified expiry date. It only gives buyers the right to buy but not the commitment to buy a particular asset. A strike price is a price of an underlying asset at which it can be bought and sold by the option holder. The strike price for a call option is said to be exercised when the option holder purchases it.
To identify: Call option will exercise or not and calculate the profit on your position.

Introduction: It is a price where option holder has right to purchase or sell stock at a definite price. A strike price is a price of an underlying asset at which it can be bought and sold by the option holder.

- I’m wanting to buy a call option. I have the prices of 13 calls and the strike prices & the volatility of the stock. The stocks current price is $96.60 but I believe it’s going to rise to $105 by December when the call expires. How would I go about analysing and deciding which option is the best to buy? Do I just look at the potential pay off of each one & how do I factor the volatility into that. Strike prices are between $92 & $106 but each have a different call price.arrow_forwardIn 1973, Fischer Black and Myron Scholes developed the Black-Scholes option pricing model (OPM). (1) What assumptions underlie the OPM? (2) Write out the three equations that constitute the model. (3) According to the OPM, what is the value of a call option with the following characteristics? Stock price = 27.00 Strike price = 25.00 Time to expiration = 6 months = 0.5 years Risk-free rate = 6.0% Stock return standard deviation = 0.49arrow_forwardAn analyst has modeled the stock of a company using the Fama-French three-factor model.

The strategy is as follows: Buy one call option having an exercise price of $95. Sell two calls having an exercise price of $100. Buy one call option having an exercise price of $105. All of the options are written on the same stock and all have the same expiration date. Compute the payoff (the dollars you receive) from this strategy at the expiration date for each of the following alternative stocks prices: $90, $95, $98, $100, $102, $105, and $110. What additional information would be required to determine whether your strategy had been profitable? What is the name of this strategy?arrow_forwardSuppose you own a put option on Apple stock with a strike price of $150.
