Suppose that the possible stock price are $90, $100, $110, and $120.

(a) At expiration (after 6 months), compute the rates of return for each strategy given different possible stock prices. We don’t consider the premium we’ve paid for holding call options in this case.
(b) Given different stock price at expiration, which strategy would you like to choose? For example, if the stock price is $90, which one would you choose to invest in? If the stock price is $100, which one would you choose to invest in? So on and so forth.
