You own one share of a nondividend-paying stock. Because you worry that its price may drop over the next year, you decide to employ a rolling insurance strategy, which entails obtaining one 3-month European put option on the stock every three months, with the first one being bought immediately. You are given: (i) The continuously compounded risk-free interest rate is 8%. (ii) The stock’s volatility is 30%. (iii) The current stock price is 45. (iv) The strike price for each option is 90% of the then-current stock price. Your broker will sell you the four options but will charge you for their total cost now. Under the Black-Scholes framework, how much do you now pay your broker?
