OPT-3 Mechanics of Options Markets

OPT-4 Option Basics Option = derivative security –Value “derived” from the value of the underlying asset Stock Option Contracts –Exchange-traded –Standardized Facilitates trading and price reporting. –Contract = 100 shares of stock

OPT-5 Put and Call Options Call option –Gives holder the right but not the obligation to buy the underlying asset at a specified price at a specified time. Put option –Gives the holder the right but not the obligation to sell the underlying asset at a specified price at a specified time.

OPT-6 Options on Common Stock 1.Identity of the underlying stock 2.Strike or Exercise price 3.Contract size 4.Expiration date or maturity 5.Exercise cycle American or European 6.Delivery or settlement procedure

OPT-7 Option Exercise American-style –Exercisable at any time up to and including the option expiration date –Stock options are typically American European-style –Exercisable only at the option expiration date

OPT-8 Option Positions Call positions: –Long call = call “holder” Hopes/expects asset price will increase –Short call = call “writer” Hopes asset price will stay or decline Put Positions: –Long put = put “holder” Expects asset price to decline –Short put = put “writer” Hopes asset price will stay or increase

OPT-9 Option Writing The act of selling an option Option writer = seller of an option contract –Call option writer obligated to sell the underlying asset to the call option holder –Put option writer obligated to buy the underlying asset from the put option holder –Option writer receives the option premium when contract entered

OPT-10 Option Payoffs & Profits Notation: S 0 = current stock price per share S T = stock price at expiration K = option exercise or strike price C = American call option premium per share c = European call option premium P = American put option premium per share p = European put option premium r = risk free rate T = time to maturity in years

OPT-11 Payoff to Call Holder ( S - K) if S >K 0if S < K Profit to Call Holder Payoff - Option Premium Profit =Max (S-K, 0) - C Option Payoffs & Profits Call Holder = Max (S-K,0)

OPT-26 Properties of Stock Options

OPT-27 Notation c = European call option price ( C = American) p = European put option price ( P = American) S 0 = Stock price today S T =Stock price at option maturity K = Strike price T = Option maturity in years  = Volatility of stock price D = Present value of dividends over option’s life r = Risk-free rate for maturity T with continuous compounding

OPT-28 American vs. European Options An American option is worth at least as much as the corresponding European option C  c P  p

OPT-29 Factors Influencing Option Values

OPT-30 Effect on Option Values Underlying Stock Price (S) & Strike Price (K) Payoff to call holder: Max (S-K,0) –As S , Payoff increases; Value increases –As K , Payoff decreases; Value decreases Payoff to Put holder: Max (K-S, 0) –As S , Payoff decreases; Value decreases –As K , Payoff increases; Value increases

OPT-31 Option Price Quotes Calls

OPT-32 Option Price Quotes Puts

OPT-33 Effect on Option Values Time to Expiration = T For an American Call or Put: –The longer the time left to maturity, the greater the potential for the option to end in the money, the grater the value of the option For a European Call or Put: –Not always true due to restriction on exercise timing

OPT-34 Option Price Quotes

OPT-35 Effect on Option Values Volatility = σ Volatility = a measure of uncertainty about future stock price movements –Increased volatility  increased upside potential and downside risk Increased volatility is NOT good for the holder of a share of stock Increased volatility is good for an option holder –Option holder has no downside risk –Greater potential for higher upside payoff

OPT-36 Effect on Option Values Risk-free Rate = r As r  : –Investor’s required return increases –The present value of future cash flows decreases = Increases value of calls = Decreases value of puts

OPT-37 Effect on Option Values Dividends = D Dividends reduce the stock price on the ex-div date –Decreases the value of a call –Increases the value of a put

OPT-38 Upper Bound for Options Call price must be ≤ stock price: c ≤ S 0 C ≤ S 0 Put price must be ≤ strike price: p ≤ K P ≤ K p ≤ Ke -rT

OPT-39 Upper Bound for a Call Option Price Call option price must be ≤ stock price A call option is selling for $65; the underlying stock is selling for $60. Arbitrage: Sell the call, Buy the stock. –Worst case: Option is exercised; you pocket $5 –Best case: Stock price < $65 at expiration, you keep all of the $65.

OPT-40 Upper Bound for a Put Option Price Put option price must be ≤ strike price Put with a $50 strike price is selling for $60 Arbitrage: Sell the put, Invest the $60 –Worse case: Stock price goes to zero You must pay $50 for the stock But, you have $60 from the sale of the put (plus interest) –Best case: Stock price ≥ $50 at expiration Put expires with zero value You keep the entire $60, plus interest

OPT-41 Lower Bound for European Call Prices Non-dividend-paying Stock c  Max(S 0 –Ke –rT,0) Portfolio A: 1 European call + Ke -rT cash Portfolio B: 1 share of stock

OPT-42 Lower Bound for European Put Prices Non-dividend-paying Stock p  Max(Ke -rT –S 0,0) Portfolio C: 1 European put + 1 share of stock Portfolio D: Ke -rT cash

OPT-43 9.43 Put-Call Parity No Dividends Portfolio A: European call + Ke -rT in cash Portfolio C: European put + 1 share of stock Both are worth max( S T, K ) at maturity They must therefore be worth the same today: c + Ke -rT = p + S 0

OPT-44 Put-Call Parity American Options Put-Call Parity holds only for European options. For American options with no dividends:

OPT-45 Introduction to Binomial Trees

OPT-46 A Simple Binomial Model (Cox, Ross, Rubenstein, 1979) A stock price is currently $20 In three months it will be either $22 or $18 Stock Price = $22 Stock Price = $18 Stock price = $20

OPT-47 Stock Price = $22 Option Price = $1 Stock Price = $18 Option Price = $0 Stock price = $20 Option Price=? A Call Option A 3-month European call option on the stock has a strike price of $21.

OPT-48 Consider the Portfolio:Long  shares Short 1 call option Portfolio is riskless when: 22  – 1 = 18  or  = 0.25 22  – 1 18  Setting Up a Riskless Portfolio

OPT-49 Valuing the Portfolio Risk-Free Rate = 12% Assuming no arbitrage, a riskless portfolio must earn the risk-free rate. The riskless portfolio is: Long 0.25 shares Short 1 call option The value of the portfolio in 3 months is 22  0.25 – 1 = 4.50 or 18 x 0.25 = 4.50 The value of the portfolio today is 4.5e – 0.12  0.25 = 4.3670

OPT-50 Valuing the Option DescriptionValue PortfolioLong 0.25 shares Short 1 call $4.367 Shares=0.25 x $20$5.000 Call option= $5.000 – 4.367$0.633

OPT-51 Generalization – 1-Step Tree S0u ƒuS0u ƒu S0d ƒdS0d ƒd S0ƒS0ƒ At t=0After move up After move down Stock price S0S0 S0uS0uS0dS0d Option price ffufu fdfd u> 1 d < 1

OPT-52 Generalization (continued) Consider the portfolio that is long  shares and short 1 derivative The portfolio is riskless when: S 0 u  – ƒ u = S 0 d  – ƒ d or S 0 u  – ƒ u S 0 d  – ƒ d

OPT-53 Generalization (continued) Value of the portfolio at time T is: S 0 u  – ƒ u Cost to set up the portfolio today: S 0  – f = Value of the portfolio today today: S 0  – f = (S 0 u  – ƒ u )e –rT Hence ƒ = S 0  ue -rT )+ƒ u e –rT

OPT-54 Generalization (continued) Substituting for  we obtain ƒ = e –rT [ p ƒ u + (1 – p )ƒ d ] where

OPT-55 Risk-Neutral Valuation p and (1  – p ) can be interpreted as the risk-neutral probabilities of up and down movements The value of a derivative is its expected payoff in a risk-neutral world discounted at the risk-free rate. Expected payoff from option:

OPT-56 Irrelevance of Stock’s Expected Return Expected return on the underlying stock is irrelevant in pricing the option –Critical point in ultimate development of option pricing formulas Not valuing option in absolute terms Option value = f(underlying stock price)

OPT-57 Original Example Revisited Risk-Neutral = No Arbitrage Since p is a risk-neutral probability 20 e 0.12  0.25 = 22p + 18(1 – p ); p = 0.6523 Alternatively, use the formula S 0 u = 22 ƒ u = 1 S 0 d = 18 ƒ d = 0 S0 ƒS0 ƒ p (1  – p )

OPT-58 Valuing the Option Value of the option: = e –0.12 x 0.25 [0.6523  1 + 0.3477  0] = 0.633 S 0 u = 22 ƒ u = 1 S 0 d = 18 ƒ d = 0 S0ƒS0ƒ 0.6523 0.3477

OPT-59 Relevance of Binomial model Stock price only having 2 future price choices appears unrealistic Consider: –Over a small time period, a stock’s price can only move up or down one tick size (1 cent) –As the length of each time period approaches 0, the Binomial Model converges to the Black- Scholes Option Pricing Model.

OPT-60 Valuing Stock Options: The Black-Scholes Model

OPT-61 BSOPM Black-Scholes (-Merton) Option Pricing Model “BS” = Fischer Black and Myron Scholes –With important contributions by Robert Merton BSOPM published in 1973 Nobel Prize in Economics in 1997 Values European options on non-dividend paying stock

OPT-62 BSOPM Assumptions  = expected return on the stock  = volatility of the stock price  Therefore in time Δt: μ Δt= mean of the return = standard deviation and:

OPT-63 The Lognormal Property Assumptions → ln S T is normally distributed with mean: and standard deviation : Because the logarithm of S T is normal, S T is lognormally distributed

OPT-64 The Lognormal Property continued where  m, v ] is a normal distribution with mean m and variance v

OPT-65 The Lognormal Distribution Restricted to positive values

OPT-66 The Expected Return Expected value of the stock price S0eTS0eT Expected return on the stock with continuous compounding  –    Arithmetic mean of the returns over short periods of length Δt  Geometric mean of returns  –  2 /2

OPT-67 Concepts Underlying Black-Scholes Option price and stock price depend on same underlying source of uncertainty A portfolio consisting of the stock and the option can be formed which eliminates this source of uncertainty (riskless). –The portfolio is instantaneously riskless –Must instantaneously earn the risk-free rate

OPT-68 Assumptions Underlying BSOPM 1.Stock price behavior corresponds to the lognormal model with μ and σ constant. 2.No transactions costs or taxes. All securities are perfectly divisible. 3.No dividends on stocks during the life of the option. 4.No riskless arbitrage opportunties. 5.Security trading is continuous. 6.Investors can borrow & lend at the risk-free rate. 7.The short-term rate of interest, r, is constant.

OPT-69 Notation c and p = European option prices (premiums) S 0 = stock price K = strike or exercise price r = risk-free rate σ = volatility of the stock price T = time to maturity in years

OPT-70 Formula Functions ln(S/K) = natural log of the "moneyness" term N(x) = the probability that a normally distributed variable with a mean of zero and a standard deviation of 1 is less than x N(d1) and N(d2) denote the standard normal probability for the values of d1 and d2. Formula makes use of the fact that: N(-d 1 ) = 1 - N(d 1 )

OPT-71 The Black-Scholes Formulas

OPT-72 BSOPM Example Given: S 0 = $42r = 10%σ = 20% K = $40T = 0.5

OPT-73 BSOPM Call Price Example d 1 = 0.7693N(0.7693) = 0.7791 d 2 = 0.6278N(0.6278) = 0.7349

OPT-74 BSOPM Put Price Example d 1 = 0.7693N(-0.7693) = 0.2209 d 2 = 0.6278N(-0.6278) = 0.2651

OPT-75 BSOPM in Excel N(d 1 ): =NORMSDIST(d 1 ) Note the “S” in the function “S” denotes “standard normal” ~ Φ(0,1) =NORMDIST() → Normal distribution Mean and variance must be specified

OPT-76 Properties of Black-Scholes Formula As S 0 →  Call  Fwd with delivery = K Almost certain to be exercised d 1 and d 2 → very large N(d 1 ) and N(d 2 ) → 1.0 N(-d 1 ) and N(-d 2 ) → 0 c → S 0 – Ke -rT p → 0 c = max(S-K,0) p = max(K-S,0)

OPT-77 Properties of Black-Scholes Formula As S 0 →0d 1 and d 2 → very large & negative N(d 1 ) and N(d 2 ) → 0 N(-d 1 ) and N(-d 2 ) → 1.0 c → 0 p → Ke -rT – S 0 c = max(S-K,0) p = max(K-S,0)

Real Options

OPT-79 Real Options Examples –Option to vary output / production –Option to delay investment –Option to expand / contract –Option to abandon Use the same option valuation approach for non-financial assets –Assume underlying asset is traded –Price as any financial asset

OPT-80 Example 1 year lease on a gold mine (T) –Extract up to 10,000 oz –Cost of extraction is $270 per oz (K) –Current market price of gold is $300 per oz (S) –Volatility of gold prices is 22.3% per annum (σ) –Interest rate is 10% per annum Continuously compounded = ln(1.1) = 9.53% (r)

OPT-81 Options Approach

OPT-82 Option to Expand At t=1, we can expand production for t=2. Up-front capital investment (at t=1) of $150k With the new investment, we can mine up to 12,500 oz per year, at a per unit cost of $280 per oz. How much would you pay at t=0 for this option?

OPT-83 Multiple Options

OPT-84

OPT-85 If Expansion and S 1 = 375

OPT-86 If No Expansion and S 1 = 375

OPT-87 If Expansion and S 1 = 240

OPT-88 If No Expansion and S 1 = 240

OPT-89 Real Options Recap

OPT-90 Conclusions If S 1 = 375: –Value of option to expand = $217,089 –Subtracting cost of expansion and discounting to t=0 –Value = $60,991 If S 1 = 240, net value is negative

OPT-91 Probability of Up Movement Know that u = and d = 1/u In our example u=1.25 and d=.8, thus p = 0.677 Option value =.667*$60,991 = $40,680.75 Total lease value = 2-yr without expansion + value of option to expand: $1,688,588 + $40,681 = $1,729,269

OPT-92 Probability of Up Movement
