Explanation / Answer

2. Intrinsic Value = (Spot Price – Strike Price) x $100
=> ($104 - $90) x 100 = $1,400

3. Time value per share is = Premium – Intrinsic Value
=> $15.625 - $14 = $1.625

4. at the money

5. In case of out of money, your total loss is equal to total premium paid.
So, total loss = 15.625 x 100 = -$1,562.5

6. If the option expires at-the-money, the loss per contract is 0.

7. Maximum Gain for writer = 100 x $16 = $1,600
