4.A one-year call option on a stock with a strike price of $30 costs $3; a one-year put option on the stock with a strike price of $30 costs $4. Suppose that a trader buys two call options and one put option. The breakeven stock price below which the trader makes a profit is
A.$25
B.$28
C.$26
D.$20

Answer: D
When the stock price is $20 the two call options provide no payoff. The put option provides a payoff of 30−20 or $10. The total cost of the options is 2×3+ 4 or $10. The stock price in D, $20, is therefore the breakeven stock price below which the position is profitable because it is the price for which the cost of the options equals the payoff.

To find the breakeven, we need the put option payoff to cover the initial cost of $10 (2 calls x $3 + 1 put x $4). So, $30 - Stock Price = $10, thus Stock Price = $20. This is a solid options play strategy, almost as satisfying as clearing a line in Block Blast! A deeper dive into option Greeks could further enrich this analysis.

With a $30 strike call and a $30 put, the total cost is 2×3 + 4 = $10. When the stock price is $20, the put has a profit of 30 - 20 = $10, covering the cost. So the break-even stock price is $20. If you like a challenge, try http://iogamesonl.com/ to get a taste of strategy and competition!

Because the cost of the options equals the payment, the stock price in D, $20, is the breakeven stock price below which the position is profitable. http://drifthunters2.io
