An individual entire wealth is from one stock. The current value of the stock is $65 and the individual owns one million shares. This individual purchased puts on the stock with an exercise price of $62 to protect his wealth. He bought enough puts to protect his entire holdings of this stock. The expiration of the put is 2 years. Immediately after buying the puts he was appointed to a two-year government position and was told that if want to stay in the government position his return over the next two years must exactly equal the risk-free rate. The risk-free rate is 5%. You have been asked to construct a spread that will provide the investor with a return over the next two years that exactly equals the return from the risk-free return on his stock holdings. You can only buy the minimum number of needed derivatives given the investors current holdings. A speculator is willing to sell or buy from you any option with any strike price with a two- year exercise.

Part 2. Draw the payoff graph for the spread.
Part 3. Show the detailed payoffs from each derivative at all relevant stock price ranges.
