11.9 Problems:
Turn in:
11.2*,  11.3**

*  For 11.2, first, be sure you read carefully the inequality you are supposed to be explaining, noting the variables in the inequalilty.
Then, try to explain the inequality without using the word “arbitrage” (although there is nothing wrong with doing so).
Updated July 6:  To be specific, for the case when the put option is in the money, take the point of view of someone selling a put option. Explain why it wouldn't make sense for the seller of such an option to sell at a price which violates the given inequality.

** Regarding 11.3: Be sure to read  Homework Format  and Homework Writing Policy  BEFORE writing up your solutions to be turned in. In particular, don't turn in a graph with no explicit indication of what it is a graph of.
Be sure to read the problem carefully and make sure you know what the problem is asking you to do. Note that in the case of the call option example, the book draws TWO graphs, one for profit and one for profit per share. Which are you supposed to do in Problem 11.3?
