Answer: 281%
A bull call spread is constructed by **buying the lower-strike call** and **selling the higher-strike call**. - Long $22 call: cost = $2.00 - Short $26 call: premium received = $0.95 - **Net initial cost** = $2.00 - $0.95 = **$1.05** Maximum payoff occurs when the stock price is at or above the higher strike: - Spread width = $26 - $22 = **$4.00** So, maximum profit = maximum payoff - initial cost: - $4.00 - $1.05 = **$2.95** ROI = maximum profit / initial cost: - $2.95 / $1.05 = 2.8095 ≈ **281%** Therefore, the correct answer is **C**.
