A stock is currently priced at $47. A call option with an expiration of 1 year has an
exercise price of $50. The risk-free rate is 4 percent per year, compounded continuously,
and the standard deviation of the stock's return is infinitely large. What is the price of the
call option?
Call option price
Assume a stock price is g120, and in the next year, it will either rise by 10 percent or fall by 20 percent. The risk-free interest rate is 6 percent. A call option on this stock has an exercise price of g130. What is the price of a call option that expires in one year? What is the chance that the stock price will rise?
Consider an American Put option with time to expiry of 5 months and a strike price of 82. The current price of the underlying stock is 80. Divide the time to expiry into five 1-month intervals. In each interval, the stock price can either rise by 6, or fall by 6, with unknown probability. The risk-free rate is 4.2% per annum, continuously compounded. Use Binomial Model.
What is the value of the option. Provide all necessary calculations.

- Use the Black-Scholes formula to calculate today's value of a call option, based on the following: The call option's strike price is $50. The expiration date is six months from now. Stock shares can be purchased for $53 a share in today's market. The risk-free rate is 4 percent per year, compounded continuously. The standard deviation of the annual stock returns is 0 percent.
