Consider a stock priced at $30. There are put and call options available at exercise prices of 30 and a time to expiration of six months. The calls are priced at $2.89 and the puts cost $2.15. There are no dividends on the stock and the options are European. Assume that all transactions consist of 100 shares or one contract (100 options). Suppose the investor constructed a “reverse” protective put. At expiration the stock price is $27. What is the investor’s profit? Also, what is the breakeven stock price?
