A. a fiduciary call option strategy and a protective put option strategy for an underlying asset are equal in value
B. a put is equivalent to a long call, a long position in the underlying asset, and a long position in the riskfree asset
C. a call is equivalent to a long put, a long position in the underlying asset, and a short position in the riskfree asst

Quick question on this..so if when rearranging the putcall formula around..when the Call is on one side of the equation and on the other is =P+underlying assetrisk asset..we can assume that anything that has a minus sign before it is being shorted.
Just wanted to confirm…thanks for the help.
