1. Price paid/received in hedging = S2 + F1 – F2 = F1 + Basis, where basis = S2- F2, Where F1 is the
option price at time t1 and F2, S2 are the option and stock price at time t2
2. For Cross hedging , it is F1 + S2* - F2 + S2 – S2*, S2* - F2 is the basis and S2* - S2 is the
difference between two assets
3. Terminal value of long forward contract = ST-F0, where ST is the price of asset on maturity and
F0- initial forward price
