Answer:

stock price is below $50

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

price of a stock = $64

strike price = $60

option price = $10

solution

we know here that stock sell for $60 and pay for $10

so that here price of stock is

stock price = $60 - $ 10

stock price = $50

and net profit will be

net profit = $10 - $10

net profit = 0

so that we can say stock price is less than $50 for trader for making profit 0 or greater than 0.

so price will be below than $50
