- At what nominal rate c.q. does money double in 10 years?arrow_forwardIn determing the time when using the Black-Scholes formula, and suppose the time is 30 days, do I convert to years and use 30/365? Or do I use 1/12 and think of the 30 days as one month? Or does it even matter? I was also wondering if I would ever just use 252 since that is the number of trading days in the year? So, for example, 30 days would be 30/252 of a year in the Black-Scholes formula?
