Summary Introduction
To calculate: The put option delta of the option portfolio using goldman’s estimate of volatility.

Consider a 6-month futures contract on a financial asset with dividend yield q=3.96% per year. Risk free rate is 10% per year. Current value of an asset is S0=$25. What should be the 6-month futures price on this asset, if there is no convenience yield and storage costs?
Suppose that an American put option with a strike price of $155.5 and maturity of 12.0 months
costs $11.0. The underlying stock price equals 143. The continuously compounded risk-free rate
