What is the breakeven point(s) for a long straddle with a $40 strike if each option is bought for $3?

  1. A$46 and $34✓ Correct answer
  2. B$43 and $37
  3. C$40
  4. D$36 and $44
Explanation

Why A$46 and $34

Breakeven is strike plus premium and strike minus premium ($40+$6, $40-$6), but since each is $3, total premium is $6, so $40+$6=$46 and $40-$6=$34. B and D use incorrect premium or math.
