You are skeptical of the prospects of a particular technology stock. Therefore, you buy four put option contracts on the stock. You pay a premium of $3 per share, and each contract involves 100shares. The option’s strike price is $40. It has a maturity of three months. The firm is currently trading at $39. If your intuition is correct, and the market price of the stock falls to $30, how much have you made?
