Explanation / Answer

A. Cost of three Aug 35 call options = 0.20*3= 0.60$

B. Intrinsic value of Aug 35 put

Underlying price= 31.12

Gain on exercising put option= 35- 31.12= 3.88$ which is the intrinsic value of put option.

29. A. Gain per contract= 28.2- 27.5-0.6= 0.1 *100= 10$

Total gain= 10*8= 80$

Assumed 100 shares per option contract.

B. When you wrote the call option you will gain if the underlying price decreases as the option expires worthless.

Here the option expires worthless.

Gain = 1.1$( premium received)
