Explanation:
A long butterfly is created by following these steps
Long 1 call option for strike X ( highest premium say C) Short 2 call option for Strike Y (premium =C-6.67 ) Long 1 call option for strike Z (premium = C-6.67 - 5.03 = C-11.70 where X<Y<ZHere, Y-X = Z-Y =$11.70
i) whenever the price at maturity goes below the price of x ( no call option is executed )
payoff = 2*(C-6.67) -C-(C-11.7) = - 13.34 + 11.70 = - 1.64
ii) when the price at maturity is between X and Y, only call with strike X is executed
hence payoff = -1.64 +(P-X) where P is the Price at maturity
p - x = y-x = 11.70
hence maximum payoff = - 1.64 + 11.70 = $10.06
iii) When the price is between Y and Z , only call with strike X and Y are executed.
hence, payoff = -1.64 + (P-X) -2* (P-Y) = -1.64 +( 2Y - X - P) and this value decreases as P increases
the minimum payoff occurs when P=Z
So, maximum payoff = -1.64 + (Z-X) - 2*(Z-Y) = -1.64 + 23.4 - 2*11.7 = -$1.64
iv) When the price at maturity is more than Z , all calls are executed
hence, payoff = -1.64 +(P-X) -2* (P-Y) + (P-Z) = -1.64+(2Y-X-Z)
= -1.64+(Y-X -(Z-Y)) = -1.64+(11.7 - 11.70)
= -$1.64
the maximum payoff occurs when P=Y
considering the four options traded the maximum payoff = $10.06
Finally determine the maximum net gain when 400 options are traded
= 10.06 * 400 / 4
= 10.06 * 100 = $1006

b. 0.67
Explanation:
UCL = 1 + 0.10
= 1.10 inch
LCL = 1 - 0.10
= 0.9 inch
standard deviation = 0.005 inch
mean = 1 inch
Cpk
= min[(UCL - mean)/(3*standard deviation) , (mean - LCL)/(3*standard deviation))]
= min[(1.10 - 1)/(3*0.05) , (1 - 0.9)/(3*0.05))]
= min[0.67 , 0.67]
= 0.67
Therefore, Theprocess capability index (Cpk) if the long-run process mean is 1 inch is 0.67
