Supplement Problems 3. Use a spreadsheet to find the call price for the following barrier option. The stock price at t = 0 is $65, the exercise price is $70, expiration date is 5 periods into the future. Assume the interest rate is 5%, u = 1.1 and d = 0.91. The barrier is set at $80. If the stock rises above $80 at any time at or before the expiration, the call loses all its value. Print your spreadsheet.

Supplement Problems 4. Suppose two risky assets A and B are trade: 10 140 A 100 B 100 80 40 What is the arbitrage free price of an option (with right but not obligation) which allows the exchange of A for B?

Supplement Problem #4 Solution: Let C t be the value of the option, t = 0, 1. The payoff of the option at t = 1 is (B 1 A 1 ) +. We have the following diagram: 0 C 0 0

Supplement Problem #4 Take α units of A and β units of B to replicate C: 10 140 A 100 B 100 α 80 β 40

Supplement Problem #4 We get the following diagram: 0 = 10α+ 140β C = 100 ( α+β) 0 0 = 80α+ 40β

Supplement Problem #4 0 = 10α+ 140β C = 100 ( α+β) 0 0 = 80α+ 40β Solve for α and β, we get α = -1/8 and β = 1/4 1 1 1 C = 100 100 1.5 0 + = = 8 4 8

Supplement Problem #4 Remark: We could also determine the risk-neutral probability and risk-free rate as follows: = + Q E [A ] (1 r)a 1 0 Q E [B ] = (1 + r)b 1 0 10q + 80(1 q) = (1 + r)100 140q + 40(1 q) = (1 + r)100

Simplify, Supplement Problem #4 Solve for q and r, 40q + 80 = (1 + r)100 100q + 40 = (1 + r)100 q = 3 1 r = 15

Supplement Problem #4 We can also find the price of call option using the risk-neutral probability and risk-free rate as follows: 1 Q 1 1 C = E [C ] = 0 0 1.5 0 1 + = 1+ r 1 3 3 1 + 15

Example Assume the stock price starts at $0 and in each of two time steps may go up by 10% or down by 10%. We suppose that each time step is three months long and the risk-free interest rate is 1% per annum compounded continuously. Let s consider a call option with a strike price of $1.

Multi-period Binomial Model Perfect replication is possible Market is complete Real probability is irrelevant Risk neutral probability dominates the pricing formula

Example: American Put Assume the stock price starts at $100 and in each of three time steps may go up by 10% or down by 10%. We suppose that each time step is three time period and the risk-free interest rate is 5% per period compounded continuously. Let s try to price an American put option with a strike price of $100.

Exotic Option: Knockout Assume the stock price starts at $100 and in each of three time steps may go up by 10% or down by 10%. We suppose that each time step is three time period and the risk-free interest rate is 5% per period compounded continuously. Let s try to price a knockout European call option struck at $105 with the barrier set at $95. If the stock price ever goes below $95, the option is worthless no matter what the stock price is at t = 3.

Binomial Trees Binomial trees are frequently used to approximate the movements in the price of a stock or other asset In each small interval of time the stock price is assumed to move up by a proportional amount u or to move down by a proportional amount d 43

Tree Parameters Parameters p, u, and d are chosen so that the tree gives correct values for the mean & variance of the stock price changes in a risk-neutral world. Mean: Variance: r t e = p u + (1 p)d σ t = pu + (1 p)d e r t A further condition often imposed is u = 1/d 44

Tree Parameters When t is small a solution to the equations is u = e d = e σ σ a p = u a = e t r t t d d 45

Backwards Induction We know the value of the option at the final nodes We work back through the tree using riskneutral valuation to calculate the value of the option at each node, testing for early exercise when appropriate 46

Example: Put Option Consider a five-month European put option on a non-dividend-paying stock when the stock price is $50, the strike price is $50, the risk-free interest rate is 10% per annum, and the volatility is 40% per annum. S = 50 0 K = 50 r = 10% = 0.10 σ= 40% = 0.40 5 T = 5 months = = 0.416667 years 1 Number of period = 5 T 1 t = = = 0.083333 years 5 1 47

Risk-Neutral Probability = r t a e for a nondividend paying stock = (r r ) t d a e for a stock index where r is the dividend (r r ) t p yield on the index = = a d u d f a e for a currency where r is the foreign risk-free rate a = 1 for a futures contract f d 56

Example: Put Option with Dividend Consider a five-month put option on a stock that is expected to pay a single dividend of $.06 during the life of the option. The initial stock price is $5, the strike price is $50, the risk-free interest rate is 10% per annum, the volatility is 40% per annum, and the ex-dividend date is in 3.5 months. 57

Example: Put Option with Dividend We first construct a tree to model S*, the stock price less the present value of future dividends during the life of the option. 58

Setting up For a fixed time T > 0, positive integer n, let Δ = T/n denote a small increment of time and suppose that, every Δ time units, the price of a security either goes up by the factor u with probability p or goes down by the factor d with probability 1 p. 64

By the CLT and with carefully chosen p, d, and u, the simpler model is going to approach a GBM as we let Δ become smaller and smaller. In order to accomplish this, we need to determine three parameters p, u, and d by matching the mean and variance (from the market). We could take d = 1/u. 65

Let S i = S(iΔ) be the stock price at time iδ for i= 0,1,,,n. Suppose X 1, X,, X n be i.i.d. of modified Bernoulli RVs with parameter p. Let Y n = X 1 + X + + X n. Write u = exp(α), then d = exp(-α). Then X X n n n = n 1 = n 1 = n 1 ( α ) S S u S e S e α X n 66

We need Note that lim αyn = Y N( Tm, Tσ ) n E[ αy ] = αe[ Y ] = αne[ X ] = nα( p 1) For large n, we would like to have n n n Var αy = α Var Y = α nvar X = nα p ( n) ( n) ( n) [1 ( 1) ] nα ( p 1) Tm nα [1 ( p 1) ] Tσ 68

Divide both sides by n, α( p 1) m α [1 ( p 1) ] σ By the 1 st eqn., the nd eqn. is equivalent to α m σ When n, Δ 0. Hence α σ 69

To summarize, we must have α ( p 1) m α σ Solve for α and p, α σ = σ p T n 1 m 1 + σ 70

Take u = e α = e σ α σ d = e = e p 1 m = 1 + σ 71

As n ->, Y S = S e Y N( mt, σ T ) T 0 [ ] 1 ( m+ σ ) T 0 0 P E S = Se = Se T 1 m + σ = µ 1 m = µ σ µ T 7

Hence u = e α = e σ p α σ d = e = e 1 1 µ σ = 1+ σ 73

In CRR Model, we use those parameters to construct the stock tree. The risk neutral probability can be calculated: q = e e σ r t σ t e e t σ t 74

q r t σ t e e = σ t σ t e e 1 [ 1 + + r t o( t) ] 1 σ + t σ + t o( t) = 1 1 1 + σ + t σ + t o( t) 1 + + ( ) σ t σ t o t 1 σ + t r σ + t o( t) = σ t + o( t) 1 r σ 1 + t + o( t) σ = + o( t) 1 1 r σ 1 = + t + o( t) σ 75

76 It is interesting to note that 1 1 1 = + p t σ σ µ 1 1 1 + q t r σ σ

Furthermore, Q Q Q E [ αy ] = αe [ Y ] = αne [ X ] = nα( q 1) n n n 1 r σ nσ t t σ = n t r 1 σ 1 = r σ T 77

Black-Scholes Formula In the Black-Scholes formula, Ф(d + ) is the probability the option will be exercised under the numeraire measure induced by the asset S. Ф(d - ) is the probability the option will be exercised under the risk neutral measure.
