QUESTION 2

A European call option written on one share of Crook & Crook, Inc. has the following parameter values: S = $31, X = $37, r = 5% p.a., = 20% p.a., T = 3 months.

QUESTION 4

Consider three at-the-money (ATM) European call options (i.e., S = X for each of them) written on the same underlying asset, with the following common parameter values: r = 0% p.a. and = 100% p.a. However, one of the options matures in T = 12 months, another in T = 24 months, and the last one matures in 36 months.

QUESTION 6

You buy a 1-year put option and sell the corresponding call option. Both options are written on 1 share of IBM stock and both have an exercise price of $118. In addition, you also buy 1 share of IBM stock. What is the net payoff you receive from this 3-asset portfolio if at expiration the price of each share of IBM stock is $24?

QUESTION 7

Consider two "corresponding" options, consisting of a call and a put with the exact same parameter values. For this pair, the call premium is $8.4. If the current price of the underlying asset is $66 and the present value of the exercise price is $66, what is the premium of the put option, P? Write the answer with one decimal; e.g., 3.2. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value.

QUESTION 8

Consider two "corresponding" options, consisting of a call and a put with the exact same parameter values. For this pair, the current price of the underlying asset is $84, the options have an exercise price of $83 and they expire in 9 months. Additionally, the risk-free rate is 4% p.a. What is the difference between the premium of the put option, P, and the premium of the call option, C; that is, what is the value of P - C? Write the answer with two decimals; e.g., 3.24. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value. Of course, include the negative sign if the answer is negative; but do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. NOTE: Use the continuous time version of the Put-Call Parity equation (i.e., do NOT use the book's version).

QUESTION 9

A European PUT option written on one share of Deadwood Lumber Co. stock has the following parameter values: S = $28, X = $30, r = 5% p.a., = 30% p.a., T = 12 months. Find the premium of this option, rounded to 2 decimals (e.g., 1.15; do NOT include a dollar sign in your answer). NOTE: Use the continuous time version of the Black-Scholes and Put-Call Parity equations (i.e., do NOT use the book's version).

QUESTION 10

A put option expires $10 in the money, meaning that the option's payoff is $10. What is the payoff at expiration of the "corresponding" call option; that is, a call option with the exact same parameter values as the put option?

QUESTION 11

You form a long straddle by buying a call with a premium of C = $6, and buying a put with a premium of P = $4. Both options have an exercise price of X = $25, both mature in 11 months, and both have the same underlying asset. Find the profit of this straddle when the price of the underlying asset is S = $94. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value. Of course, include the negative sign if the answer is negative; but do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.

QUESTION 12

You form a long straddle by buying a call with a premium of C = $8, and buying a put with a premium of P = $5. Both options have an exercise price of X = $30, both mature in 9 months, and both have the same underlying asset. Find the profit of this straddle when the price of the underlying asset is S = $38. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value. Of course, include the negative sign if the answer is negative; but do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.

QUESTION 13

You form a long straddle by buying a call with a premium of C = $6, and buying a put with a premium of P = $6. Both options have an exercise price of X = $49, both mature in 7 months, and both have the same underlying asset. Find the profit of this straddle when the price of the underlying asset is S = $40. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value. Of course, include the negative sign if the answer is negative; but do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.

QUESTION 14

You form a long straddle by buying a call with a premium of C = $7, and buying a put with a premium of P = $7. Both options have an exercise price of X = $68, both mature in 6 months, and both have the same underlying asset. Find the profit of this straddle when the price of the underlying asset is S = $19. Do NOT use the $ symbol in your answer; just write a numerical value. Of course, include the negative sign if the answer is negative; but do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.
