Consider shorting a call option c on a stock S where S = 24 is the value of the stock, K = 30 is the strike price, T = ½ is the expiration date, r = 0.04 is the continuously compounded interest rate per year, and = 0.3 is the volatility of the price of the stock. Determine the delta ratio Δ .
Suppose you are attempting to value a 1-year expiration option on a stock with volatility (i.e., annualized standard deviation) of σ = .40. What would be the appropriate values for u and d if your binomial model is set up using:a. 1 period of 1 year.b. 4 subperiods, each 3 months.c. 12 subperiods, each 1 month.
Consider a stock with a current price of P $27
Suppose that over the next 6 months the stock
price will either go up by a factor of 1.41 or down
by a factor of 071. Consider a call option on the
stock with a strike price of $25 that expires in
6 months. The nsk-free rate is 6%.
(1) Using the binomial model, what are the ending
values of the stock price? What are the payoffs
of the call option?
