Call Option Profit & Breakeven Formula

Profit=max(0,STK)Premium Paid,Breakeven=K+Premium Paid\text{Profit} = \max(0, S_T - K) - \text{Premium Paid}, \quad \text{Breakeven} = K + \text{Premium Paid}

Net call profit is calculated as the intrinsic value at expiration (Stock Price minus Strike) minus the initial premium paid per share.
