Suppose you enter into along 6-month forward position at a forward price of $60. What is the payoff in 6 months for prices of $50, $55, $60, $65, and $70? The payoff to a long forward at expiration is equal to: Payoff to long forward = Spot price at expiration−Forward price Therefore, the payoff in 6 months shown in the following table: Price of position in 6 months Payoff of the forward $50 - $10 55 - 5 60 0 65 5 $70 $10 2. Suppose that instead you buy a 6-month call option with a strike price of $60. What is the payoff in 6 months at the same prices for the underlying asset? Payoff = Price of underlying asset in 6-month - Strike price of 6-month call option = $60 - $60 = $0 or zero 3. Comparing the payoffs of parts (a) and (b), which contract should be more expensive (i.e., the long call or long forward)? Why is this so?
