Question

The stock price of ABC changes only once a month: either it goes up by 20% or it falls by 16.7%. Its price now is £40. The interest rate is 12.7% per year, or about 1% per month.

 

Required:

i    Suppose a one-month call option on this stock has an exercise price of £40, what is the option delta?

ii   Show how the payoffs of this call option can be replicated by buying ABC’s stock and borrowing.

iii Using the risk-neutral method to calculate the value of a one-month call option with an exercise price of £40.

iv  Construct a two-month binomial tree. What is the value of a two-month call option with an exercise price of £40?

 v  Use put-call parity, what is the price for a one-month put with the same exercise price? And a two-month put with the same exercise price?
