1 Draw the payoff picture at expiration for a long position in a call option that has a premium of $1.75 and a strike price of $40.
1a Draw the payoff picture for a short position in the call option given in Problem 2.
1. Long call option payoff diagram.
Long call payoff = max(St - X, 0)
X = $40
Note that we do not need the premium to calculate the payoff of options.
Profit = max(St - X, 0) - Premium
Screenshot with formulas
2. Short call option payoff
Short call payoff = -max(St - X, 0)
Short call profit = -max(St - X, 0) + Premium
