An analyst has modeled the stock of a company using the Fama-French three-factor model. The market return is 10%, the return on the SMB portfolio (rSMB) is 3.2%, and the return on the HML portfolio (rHML) is 4.8%. If ai = 0, bi = 1.2, ci = 20.4, and di = 1.3, what is the stock’s predicted return?
In 1973, Fischer Black and Myron Scholes developed the Black-Scholes option pricing model (OPM). (1) What assumptions underlie the OPM? (2) Write out the three equations that constitute the model. (3) According to the OPM, what is the value of a call option with the following characteristics? Stock price = 27.00 Strike price = 25.00 Time to expiration = 6 months = 0.5 years Risk-free rate = 6.0% Stock return standard deviation = 0.49
Consider a European call on Procter and Gamble stock (PG) that expires in one period. The current stock price is $120, the strike price is $130, and the risk-free rate is 5%. Assume that PG stock will either go up to $150 (probability = .4), or go down to $90 (probability = .6). Construct a replicating portfolio based on shares of PG stock and a position in a risk-free asset, and compute the price of the call option.
In a financial market a stock is traded with a current price of 50. Next period the priceof the stock can either go up with 30 per cent or go down with 25 per cent.

In this problem, we derive the put-call parity relationship for European options on stocks that pay dividends before option expiration. For simplicity, assume that the stock makes one dividend payment of $D per share at the expiration date of the option.a. What is the value of a stock-plus-put position on the expiration date of the option?b. Now consider a portfolio comprising a call option and a zero-coupon bond with the same maturity date as the option and with face value (X + D). What is the value of this portfolio on the option expiration date? You should find that its value equals that of the stock-plus-put portfolio regardless of the stock price.c. What is the cost of establishing the two portfolios in parts (a) and (b)? Equate the costs of these portfolios, and you will derive the put-call parity relationship.
