Present Value factor using Continuous Compounding

rf = 3.2% Months = 9

3.2% x 9/12 = 2.4%

1 + 0.024 + 0.0242 / 2 = 1.024 + .0003 = 1.0243

PV Factor = 1 / 1.0243 = 0.97629

Value of call or Call Price

= N(d1) x Stock price - N(d2) x Present Value of Exercise price

= 0.23985 x 38 - 0.18710 x 45 x 0.97629

= 0.8944
