A. What is the total cost borne by All-Star on loans from Bank of America?
B. Does All-Star exercise against the Option Call purchased on January 15, 2019?
C. Draw in graphical form for this pay-off Option Call
To understand this, let us look at how the loan would work without the call option :
Total Cost borne by All-Star on loans (without call option) is (Loan repayment in IDR - Loan withdrawn in IDR) = IDR 1.5 billion
With the call option,
In the example given in the question, All-Star would not exercise the call option as the spot rate on 14/01/2020 is lower than the strike price of the option.
The premium paid on the call option = (Loan in USD * Strike Price of option * 2.5 %). 2.5% is the premium given in the question. premium = $1,000,000 * 16000 * 2.5%, which is IDR 400 million
Total cost borne by All-Star on loans = Total Cost (without call option) + payoff + premium paid
Total cost (without call option) as calculated above is IDR 1.5 billion
payoff is zero as the call option is not exercised
premium paid = IDR 400 million
Total cost borne by All-Star on loans = IDR (1.5 billion + 400 million), which is IDR 1.9 billion
