QUESTION 1 (11 points) There exist call and put options on one share of Options'R'Real Inc. (ORR). Each option is EUROPEAN, expires exactly one year from today, has an exercise price of $45 per share, and has a premium of $3 per share. The current share price of ORR is $45, and ORR never pays dividends. Assume that there are no transaction costs and no taxes. a) You buy one share of ORR, buy one European put option on ORR, and write one European call option on ORR. Using the data above calculate your cash flow on expiration day. How does your cash flow on expiration day depend on the stock price on expiration day? EXPLAIN. (2 points) b) Suppose that the riskless interest rate over the period until expiration is zero. Are the options priced correctly? (1 point) Suppose that the current riskless interest rate from today until the options expiration date rises to 4.65%. Are the options priced correctly? If not, assume that the call price is $3 and calculate the put price. Second, assume that the put price is $3 and calculate the call price. Third, explain how and why the increase in interest rate had affected the put and call prices. (3 points) Suppose that the current riskless borrowing and lending interest rate from today until the option's expiration date remains 4.65%. However, suppose that the current share price of ORR fell to $43. Are the options priced correctly? If not, assume that the call price is $3 and calculate the put price. Second, assume that the put price is $3 and calculate the call price. Third, explain why the decline in the share price had affected the put and call prices. (3 points) Suppose that the current riskless borrowing and lending interest rate from today until the option's expiration date remains 4.65%, and that the current share price of ORR remains $45. But, ORR will pay cash dividends. The present value of all the cash dividends paid over the life of the options is $2. How would your answers to the previous question change? EXPLAIN.
