Answer:

$33.25

Explanation:

The break-even point is calculated as: Higher strike price - Initial cost.

Initial cost = Cost of buying the higher strike price put option - Amount earned by selling the lower strike put option

Initial cost = $2.43 - $0.68

Initial cost = $1.75 per share

Break-even point = Higher strike price - Initial cost

Break-even point = $35 - $1.75

Break-even point = $33.25
