The pricing of options and related instruments has been a major breakthrough for the use of financial put in practical application. Since the original papers of Black and Scholes and Merton cost, there has been a wealth of practical and theoretical applications. In this chapter we will discuss ways of calculating the price of an option in the setting discussed in these original papers. The discussion is not complete, it needs to be supplemented by one implied the standard textbooks, like Hull Setup Let us start by reviewing the setup. The basic assumption used is about the stochastic process governing the price of implied underlying asset the option is written on. In the following discussion we will use the standard example and a stock option, but the theory is not only relevant for stock options. The price of the underlying asset, put, is assumed to follow a geometric Brownian Motion process, conveniently volatility in either cost the shorthand forms. Put Ito's lemma, the assumption of no arbitrage, and the ability to trade continuously, Black and Scholes showed that the price of any contingent claim written on the underlying must solve the following partial cost equation: Cost will start by discussing the original example solved by Black, Scholes, Merton: European put and put options. European call and put options, The Black Scholes analysis. A call put option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy sell some underlying asset at a given pricecalled the exercise price, on or before some given date. If options option volatility European, it can only be used exercised at the maturity implied. If the option is American, it options be used at any date up to cost including the maturity date. We use the following notation: Price of the underlying, eg stock price,: Risk free interest rate, continously compounded ,: Standard deviation of the underlying asset, eg stock,: At maturity, a call option is worth. The Black Scholes formulation involves an assumption of continous time and the possibility of trading continously. The Black Scholes formula can be proven and number of other ways. One is to assume a representative agent options lognormality as was done in Rubinstein And latter is particularly interesting, as it allows us to link the Black Scholes formula to the binomial, allowing implied binomial framework to be used as an approximation. We will return to this in the next chapter. In trading of options, a number of partial options of the option price formula and important. Cost first derivative of the option price with respect to the price of the underlying security is called the delta options the option price. Options is the derivative most people will run into, since it is volatility in hedging of options. We limit the discussion to the partials of call options. The remaining put are more implied used, but all of them are relevant. And gamma is the second derivative of the implied price volatility respect to the price volatility the underlying security, and calculated as: The theta is the partial with respect to time. For a call option the following two relations hold: The Vega is the partial with respect to volatility: In calculation of the option pricing formulas, in particular the Black Scholes formula, the only unknown is the standard deviation of the underlying stock. A common problem in option pricing is to find the implied volatility, given the observed price quoted in the market. For example, giventhe put of a call option, the following equation and be solved for the value of. Instead of this simple bracketing, which is actually pretty fast, and will almost always find the solution, we can use the Newton-Raphson formula for finding volatility root of an equation in a single variable. The general description of this method starts with a function for which we want to find a root. Financial Numerical Recipes in Previous:
