Suppose that the price S(t) of a share is described by the GBM with pa- rameters So, μ, σ, and r is the continuously compounded interest rate. A derivative on this share provides at time T a payoff R(S(T)) = S(T)1.2. (a) Compute the no-arbitrage price C of this derivative. (b) Derive the formula for the probability that the payoff at time T to the owner of one share will be grater than A. Compute this probability if T = 1 year, μ = 0.05, σ = 0.14, So = 40, A = 44.
