• What is the company you have selected? Nike Inc.
• What is the company using their option contract for? Foreign
currency rate changes
• What is the value of the option contract in the Annual
Statements? $875 Million
• Copy/paste a picture of the value from the financial statements.

• Imagine you are a retiree from this company and received stock
as part of your pension package benefit. What would you do
with the shares to earn extra money above the dividends?
• If I were a retiree from Nike, I would make money just by
holding for a good price before selling the stock. As a
retiree, I would play around with options because they
would be too risky if this money is needed during
retirement.
• Currently the stock is going up, so I would lock-in that
increase by selling the shares at a price that would make
some capital gain.
