    D. the purchase of a share of stock with a simultaneous sale of a call on that stock.

    Explanation:

    A covered call position is the purchase of a share of stock with a simultaneous sale of a call on that stock. A covered call position is created in the financial market when investors buy stock and sell call options on a share for share basis. It is the same as a short put, stock plus a short call.

    Under covered call, investors having a long-position in an asset has the inherent obligation of writing call options on that same asset because they feel that underlying stock price won't rise anytime soon but wish to increase income getting call option premiums.
