A customer buys 1 XYZ May 50 call at a premium of $3. At expiration, XYZ is trading at $55. What is the intrinsic value of the option?

  1. A$8
  2. B$3
  3. C$0
  4. D$5✓ Correct answer
Explanation

Why D$5

The intrinsic value of a call is the current stock price minus the strike price: $55 - $50 = $5. The premium is not intrinsic value. Intrinsic value cannot be negative.
