You purchased a call option for an Apple stock with the strike
price of $110. The option premium was $1. You held the option until
maturity, when the price for each share of Apple was $111. Your
payoff at maturity was_____.
-$2. |

$-1 |
||
$1 |
||
$0 |
Payoff at maturity = Max(Market price at maturity - Strike Price,0) - (Option premium paid)
= $111-110-1
= $ 0
Note: since it's a call option therefore the call buyer will get the profit when the market price will be higher than exercise price.
