The stock is selling at $45 and the following two call options are being considered for writing: an XYZ July 40 (i.e., the strike price is $40, and it expires in July); and an XYZ July 50. You are going to write 10 contracts, and each contract contains 100 options. Part I. Your broker provided you with the information about the prices of these two call options, one is $8 and the other is $1. But he forgot to tell you which one was for $8 and which one was for $1.

Besides providing different levels of protection, these two strategies offer different profit/loss profile. Under what scenario, will strategy B outperform the strategy A?
