请问为什么 a synthetic long put can be created by short selling the underlying stock and then lending some of the proceeds? 这个是用put-call parity 解释吗? p=c+k-s? (c+k是lending?)谢谢

下面是kaplan题目,让用binomial model来作答。 认为卖stocks得到的钱要以risk free rate lend出去才会 lock the arbitrage profit. 请问老师,用这种方法解释跟bsm模型解释是否矛盾
Under the binomial model, if the Merrill put is overpriced in the market, Mulroney's most appropriate action is to write the put option and:
A)purchase stock and borrow.
B)sell stock and borrow.
C)sell stock and lend.
The Merrill put is overpriced in the market, so to profit we want to go short (or write) that put option ("sell high"). To then hedge this short put position, we need a synthetic long put option, which can be replicated by lending that is funded by short-sale of the underlying stock. (A long put option is equivalent to a short position in the underlying, plus lending.)
