- Binomial Model The current price of a stock is 20. In 1 year, the price will be either 26 or 16. The annual risk-free rate is 5%. Find the price of a call option on the stock that has a strike price of 21 and that expires in 1 year. (Hint: Use daily compounding.)arrow_forwardSuppose XYZ stock pays no dividends and has a current price of $50. The forward price for delivery in 1 year is $55. Suppose the 1-year eective annual interest rate is 10%. (a) Graph the payo and prot diagrams for a forward contract on XYZ stock with a forward price of $55. (b) Is there any advantage to investing in the stock or the forward contract? Why? (c) Suppose XYZ paid a dividend of $2 per year and everything else stayed the same. Now is there any advantage to investing in the stock or the forward contract? Why?arrow_forwardExtended Cost-of-Carry Model. The current level of a stock is S0 = 100. A forward contract on 1 share of this stock matures after six months. The continuously compounded interest rate is 5% per year. The stock generates a 1.9% dividend yield per year. Now a dealer quotes a forward price $102.31 for S. (a) How would you arbitrage this quote? (b) What would your arbitrage profits be?arrow_forward
