Answer:

$38.21

Explanation:

The computation of the value of put option is shown below;

Hedge ratio is

= (Pay off in case price appreciates - Pay off in case of price depreciates) ÷ (Appreciated price - Depreciated price)

= (Max[$135 - $160, $0] - Max[$135 - $60, $0]) ÷ ($160 - $60)

= ($0 - $75) / $100

= -0.75

Now, Price of Put option is

= -Hedge ratio × {Appreciated price ÷ (1 + risk free rate) - Present stock price}

= -(-0.75) × {$160 ÷ (1 + 6%) - $100}

= $38.21
