There is a European put option on a stock that expires in two months. The stock price is $93 and the standard deviation of the stock returns is 68 percent. The option has a strike price of $101 and the risk-free interest rate is an annual percentage rate of 7 percent. What is the price of the put option today? Use a two-state model with one-month steps. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

A company stock whose current price is $192 is expected to either increase to $242 or decrease to $185 over the next nine months with equal probability.

Suppose that a stock price is currently 61 dollars, and it is known that at the end of each of the next two six-month periods, the price will be either 18 percent higher or 18 percent lower than at the beginning of the period. Find the value of a European put option on the stock that expires a year from now, and has a strike price of 64 dollars. Assume that no arbitrage opportunities exist, and a risk-free interest rate of 10 percent.
A put option and a call option written on the same stock will expire in three months. They both have an exercise price of $45. And they sell for $2.65 and $5.23, respectively. If the underlying stock is currently selling at $47.30, what is the effective annual interest rate? Assume that both options are European options, and that compounding is not continuous.
You need to price a put option on the stock of APPLE with an exercise price of $50 and six months to expiration. The current stock price of APPLE is $52, the risk-free rate is 10% p.a. (c.c.) and the volatility of the stock price of APPLE is 30% p.a. APPLE will pay a dividend of $1 in exactly four months’ time. This put option is to be priced using a two-period binomial option pricing model, with three months in each period. QUESTION: Draw the two-period tree diagram for the adjusted stock price (that recognizes the impact of the dividend) of APPLE. Show the expiration date payoffs from the put option.
The current price of a non-dividend paying stock is $100. Every three months, it is expected to go up or down by 9% or 5%, respectively. The risk-free rate is 4% per year with continuous compounding.
