An investor buys a stock for $40 per share and simultaneously sells a call option on the stock with an exercise price of $42 for a premium of $3 per share. Ignoring the dividends and transaction costs, what is the maximum profit the writer of this covered call can earn if the position is held to expiration?
Put option Ed Martin, the pension fund manager for Stark Corporation, is considering purchase of a put option in anticipation of a price decline in the stock of Carlisle Inc. The option to sell 100 shares of Carlisle at any time during the next 90 days at a strike price of $45 can be purchased for $380. The stock of Carlisle is currently selling for $46 per share.
