On page 21 in Chapter 5A, the last two columns show that the total cash flow at the maturity is 0 regardless of spot price. Use ST =100 for the first case (ST<105) and ST =110 for the second case (ST>=105). Show how those positions are closed and what cash flows are made. See my answer for one position (Sell call) as an example.
| How are the positions closed at the end if ST =100? | Cash flows at the end if ST =100 | How are the positions closed at the end if ST =110? | Cash flows at the end if ST =110 | |
| Buy stock | Sell stock | 100 | ||
| Borrow $102.41 | ||||
| Sell call | Exercise | 105-110 = -5 | ||
| Buy put | ||||
| Total | 0 | 0 |
