Suppose you think AppX stock is going to appreciate substantially in value in the next year. Say the stock's current price, Sp, is $40, and a call option expiring in one year has an exercise price, X, of $40 and is selling at a price, C, of $14. With $12,600 to invest, you are considering three alternatives. a. Invest all $12,600 in the stock, buying 315 shares. b. Invest all $12,600 in 900 options (9 contracts). c. Buy 100 options (one contract) for $1,400, and invest the remaining $11,200 in a money market fund paying 5% in interest over 6 months (10% per year). What is your rate of return for each alternative for the following four stock prices in 6 months? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "O" wherever required. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round the "Percentage return of your portfolio (Bills + 100 options)" answers to 2 decimal places.) The total value of your portfolio in six months for each of the following stock prices is: Price of Stock 6 Months from Now 35 $ 40 $ 50 $ $ 60 Stock Price All stocks (315 shares) All options (900 options) Bills + 100 options The percentage return of your portfolio in six months for each of the following stock prices is: $ Price of Stock 6 Months from Now 35 $ 40 $ 50 % % % $ 60 % Stock Price All stocks (315 shares) All options (900 options) Bills + 100 options
