paying stock (each time-step is one year).
So
= $10.00
Su = $12.00
Sa = $9.00
Suu = $14.40
Sud =
Sdu = $10.80
Sad = $8.10
Calculate the price of a two-year European call on the stock, with a strike price of $8.00,
given that the risk-free interest rate is 4% p.a. (Enter your answer as a number rounded to
two decimal places. So, if the value of the option is $1.23, you should enter 1.23 as your
answer.)
