Answer:

A. -0.80

B. 2.20

Explanation:

A. Calculation for your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option

Net profit per share=max(53-55,0)-0.80

Net profit per share=0-0.80

Net profit per share=-0.80

Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option is -0.80

b. Calculation for your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option

Net profit per share

=max(53-50,0)-0.80

Net profit per share=3-0.80

Net profit per share=2.20

Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option is 2.20
