Explanation / Answer

Answer :-

Case(1) Buy Shares = 2000*70 = 140000

Sell shares at expiry = 2000*75 = 150000

therefore profit is of 10000

Case (2) Take a put option of EP $60 of 2000 Shares

At Expiry :- The CMP is $75

As CMP > EP so we do not exercise There fore no gain

Case (3) Selling Call option at EP $80

At Expiry :- The CMP is $75

As CMP < EP so Call buyer do not exercise so no loss to call seller

Now there fore total profit from these three is 10000

Old Balance is 140000

Therefore now total Payoff is 150000

Therefore the correct answer is (a)
