Buy 100 shares of stock and write one October The following option prices were observed for a stock for July 6 of a particular year. Use this information in problems 10 through 15. Ignore dividends on the stock. The stock is priced at 165.13. The expirations are July 17. August 21. and October 16. The continuously compounded risk-free rates are 0.0503, 0.0535, and 0.0571, respectively. The standard deviation is 0.21. Assume that the options are European. Calls Strike Aug 165 4.75 170 7.50 In problems 10 through 15, determine the profits for possible stock prices of 150, 155, 160, 165, 170, 175, and 180. Answer any other questions as requested. Note: Your Excel spreadsheet Option StrategyAnalyzer 10e.xlsm will be useful here for obtaining graphs as requested, but it does not allow you to calculate the profits for several user-specified asset prices. It permits you to specify one asset price and a maximum and minimum. Use Option StrategyAnalyzer10e.xlsm to produce the graph for the range of prices from 150 to 180, but determine the profits for the prices of 150, 160, 180 by hand for positions held to expiration. For positions closed prior to expiration, use the spreadsheet BlackScholes Merton Binomial 10e.xlsm to determine the option price when the position is closed; then calculate the profit by hand. 10.
