Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When volatility of the underlying asset increases, options contracts become more valuable as there is a higher likelihood of the underlying asset moving significantly in price. This results in higher premiums for options contracts. Conversely, a higher exercise price (A) or a shorter time to expiration (C) both decrease the value of options contracts, resulting in lower premiums. An increase in futures price (D) may have an impact on options premiums, but it depends on the specific contract and underlying asset being referenced. Generally, an increase in futures price may increase the value of options contracts, but it is not always the case.
