12. Value of a Call Option at Expiration (Figure 25.2) Stock price at expiration (S 1 ) Call option value at expiration (C 1 ) S 1  E S 1 > E Exercise price (E) 45 ° As shown, the value of a call at expiration is equal to zero if the stock price is less than or equal to the exercise price. The value of the call is equal to the stock price minus the exercise price (S 1 - E) if the stock price exceeds the exercise price.

13. Value of a Call Option Before Expiration (Figure 25.3) Stock price (S 0 ) Call price (C 0 ) Exercise price (E) 45 ° Lower bound C 0  S 0 - E C 0  0 Upper bound C 0  S 0 As shown, the upper bound on a call’s value is given by the value of the stock (C 0  S 0 ). The lower bound is either S 0 - E or zero, whichever is larger.
