    a. Percentage return = 300%

    b. Break-even stock price = $46.85

    b. Percentage gain or loss = 400% loss

    Explanation:

    a. What is his percentage return?

    Percentage return = ($47.50 - $44.90 - $0.65) / $0.65 = $1.95 / $0.65 = 3.00, or 300%

    b. What is the breakeven stock price?

    Break-even stock price = Strike price - Option premium = $47.50 - $0.65 = $46.85

    c. What would the percentage gain or loss be if the stock price at expiration is $49.45/sh

    Percentage gain or loss = ($47.50 - $49.45 - $0.65) / $0.65 = - 4.00, or 400% loss.
