Dorothy Santosuosso does a lot of investing in the stock market and is a frequent user of stock-index options. She is convinced that the market is about to undergo a broad retreat and has decided to buy a put option on the S&P 100 Index. The put carries a strike price of 909 and is quoted in the financial press at $14.55.

If she is right, her holding period return will be ____%. (Round to the nearest whole percent.)

If the S&P 100 goes up (rather than down) by 35 points and reaches 933 by the date of expiration, she will lose $______. (Round to the nearest cent.)
