There are only two scenarios: either an upside, on which the price rises to $300 or a downside that leads to a drop of $100. The risk free interest rate (rf) is 8%.

The current stock price for Microsoft is $218. Suppose that the risk-free rate is 1%, whereas the dividend yield on Microsoft is 0.

Let St denote the price of a non-dividend paying stock at time t. Express the risk-neutral price of the derivative using the spot price (St), the strike price (K), the risk-free rate (r), the stock volatility (o), and time to maturity (7 = T - t).

Stock price falls. (i). Volatility of stock price rises B. Suppose FlyByNight Corporation (FBN) is selling a one-year European call option that has an exercise price of $32. Assume that FBN's stock is currently selling for $20 and that over the coming year the price will either rise to $81 or fall to $11. Also assume that the one-year rate of interest is 10 percent. What would be the market price for this call option? Please explain carefully,arrow_forward6. Let us consider a European option on a stock that does not yield any dividend. Assume that that the price of this option is described by the Black-Scholes model with a drift of 10% per year, volatility of 40% per year. The current price of the stock is S, = £16. The risk-free interest rate on the market is 4% per year. 1) a) Calculate the price of a call option with strike price of £18 and a maturity T of one year. b) Using the put-call parity calculate the price of the corresponding put op- tion. 2) Imagine that in 6 months from now, the stock costs £16.4. Is it worth to wait 6 months before buying the call option above and investing in a saving account what we would have paid for buying the call at the initial time? Would this still apply if the stock costed £19.2 in 6 months from now?arrow_forwardC. Draw a graph of the SML and locate the projects (A) and (B) on the graph. 5. Effective Annual Yield (EAY) and Effective Annual Rate (EAR) A. You plan to invest $1,000 for one year and you have the opportunity to invest it at a 12 percent APR, compounded monthly. Alternatively, you could invest the funds at an annual rate of 12.3 percent compounded semiannually. What is the EAY of each alternative?
