Answer:

Loss of $500

Explanation:

Given that

Stock price = 123

Strike price = 125

Premium price = 5

Recall that

Long call profit = (MAX (stock price - strike price, 0) - premium per share

Thus,

Long call profit = Max [0, ($123 - $125)(100)] - $500

= - $500.

Therefore, the negative sign in front indicates a loss of $500
