Buying the index and buying a put with strike 10 creates a floor. The floor has the same profit function as a long call with strike 10. The minimum profit on the floor is the (negative) loss of the future value of the call premium when the call expires unexercised. By parity the value of the call premium is The minimum profit is e = Answer A 25.
