Bubba buys one XYZ September 50 call at $7 and sells one XYZ September 60 call at $3. At that time, XYZ stock is at $55. Bubba has no other stock positions. What is Bubba’s maximum possible profit?
  1. $500
  2. $600
  3. $1,000
  4. unlimited
Explanation
Answer: B - $600. The maximum profit is the difference between strike prices less the debit amount. The debit amount is $4 ($7 - $3). The difference between strike prices is $10 ($60 - $50). Multiply the $6 difference by 100, which is the number of shares on one option.
