Notation• c : European call

• p : European put option price
• S0 : Stock price today
• X : Strike price
• T : Life of option
• : Volatility of stock price
• C : American Call option price
• P : American Put option price
• ST :Stock price at time T
• D : Present value of dividends during option’s life
• r : Risk-free rate for maturity T with cont comp
5.3Calls: An Arbitrage
Opportunity?
• Suppose that
c = 3 S0 = 20
T = 1 r = 10%
X = 18 D = 0
• Is there an arbitrage opportunity?

Lower Bound for European Call Option Prices; No Dividends

in fact, at maturity:if S>X, identical resultif S<X, superior result
consider 2 portfolios:a. buy a call and a ZCB worth X at Tb. buy the stock

TODAY
• sell the stock at 20, and with the proceeds:
• buy the call at 3 and a ZCB maturing in 1 year time for 16,28 today (i.e. 18=X)
• invest the diff=Y=20-3-16,28=0.72 in a ZCB maturing in 1 year
AT MATURITY
• if S<18, you have 18+0.79 (so better off than keeping the stock
• if S>18, you get:
- S-X from the call (=S-18)
- X from the ZCB (=18)
- 0.79 from the residual
• sum up the terms and you will be happier than having kept the stock
5.7Puts: An Arbitrage
Opportunity?
• Suppose that
p = 1 S0 = 37 T = 0.5 r =5% X = 40 D = 0
• Is there an arbitrage opportunity?
5.8Lower Bound for European Put Prices; No Dividends
p + S0 Xe -rT
p Xe -rT - S0
consider 2 portfolios:a. buy a put and a stock b. buy the ZCB worth X at maturity
5.9
Put-Call Parity; No Dividends
• Consider the following 2 portfolios:
- Portfolio A: European call on a stock + PV of the strike price in cash
- Portfolio B: European put on the stock + the stock
• Both are worth MAX(ST , X ) at the maturity of the options
• They must therefore be worth the same today
- This means that
c + Xe -rT = p + S0
5.10
Arbitrage Opportunities
• Suppose that
c = 3 S0 = 31
T = 0.25 r = 10%
X =30 D = 0
• What are the arbitrage possibilities when
p = 2.25 ? p = 1 ?
5.11arbitrage
• c + Xe -rT = p + S0
3+30*0.97531=p+31
3+29.2593=p+31
p=1.2593
• if p=1, then
• TODAY:- sell the call at 3 and buy the put at 1. You have 2 euro remaining.
- buy the stock at 31, by borrowing 30.23 and using 0.77 from the options proceeds
- invest 1.23 (out of the original 2) in a ZCB
• in 3 months time:- if S=33, for example, put=0, call=3. So you are at -3.
- sell the stock at 33 and repay your debt. So you are at +2
- so you are at -1, but in reality you still have 1.23*exp(0.25*10%)

An American option is worth at least as much as the corresponding European option

The Stock Price Assumption
• Consider a stock whose price is S
• In a short period of time of length t the change in then stock price is assumed to be normal with mean Sdt and standard deviation
is expected return and is volatility

The Concepts Underlying Black-Scholes
• The option price & the stock price depend on the same underlying source of uncertainty
• We can form a portfolio consisting of the stock and the option which eliminates this source of uncertainty
• The portfolio is instantaneously riskless and must instantaneously earn the risk-free rate
• This leads to the Black-Scholes differential equation

Risk-Neutral Valuation
• The variable does not appear in the Black-Scholes equation
• The equation is independent of all variables affected by risk preference
• The solution to the differential equation is therefore the same in a risk-free world as it is in the real world
• This leads to the principle of risk-neutral valuation
5.23
Applying Risk-Neutral Valuation
1. Assume that the expected return from the stock price is the risk-free rate
2. Calculate the expected payoff from the option
3. Discount at the risk-free rate

Implied Volatility
• The implied volatility of an option is the volatility for which the Black-Scholes price equals the market price
• The is a one-to-one correspondence between prices and implied volatilities
• Traders and brokers often quote implied volatilities rather than dollar prices
5.26
Dividends
• European options on dividend-paying stocks are valued by substituting the stock price less the present value of dividends into Black-Scholes
• Only dividends with ex-dividend dates during life of option should be included
• The “dividend” should be the expected reduction in the stock price expected

We can value European options by reducing the stock price to S0e–q T and then behaving as though there is no dividend

The Foreign Interest Rate
• We denote the foreign interest rate by rf
• When a European company buys one unit of the foreign currency it has an investment of S0 euro
• The return from investing at the foreign rate is rf S0 euro
• This shows that the foreign currency provides a “dividend yield” at rate rf
5.30
Valuing European Currency Options
• A foreign currency is an asset that provides a continuous “dividend yield” equal to rf
• We can use the formula for an option on a stock paying a continuous dividend yield :
Set S0 = current exchange rate
Set q = rƒ
