Answer:

a. $203.125

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the net profit/loss on this option to the investor

Net profit/loss=((1.900 - 1.885) - 0.0215)(31,250)

Net profit/loss=(0.015-0.0215)*31,250

Net profit/loss=0.0065*31,250

Net profit/loss=$203.125

Therefore the net profit/loss on this option to the investor will be $203.125
