Recommendation
Rates of Return from option scenarios
Option is exercised
33-30 = 3 ,
(3+1)/30 = 13.33%
Option is never exercised.
Able to sell options 3 times a year.
1 * 3 = 3, 3/30 = 10%
Based on our estimations selling the options will either
give us 13.33% for one time or allow us to get a steady
cash stream of 10% per year.
