If the spot price of gold is $2000 per ounce, six month
at-the-money European puts and calls are selling for $200 each and

the next 6 months is 1.0 percent.
Q1. Are there any opportunities for arbitrage profits? If so,

Q2. Using the prices of the put and the call and the current
price of the underlying asset, what is the implied riskless
rate?
