Call: market price<exercise price Put: exercise price<market price At the Money - exercise price and asset price are equal. Market and Exercise Price Relationship

4. 4 Examples Tell if it is in or out of the money For a put option on a stock, the current stock price=$50 while the exercise price is $47. For a call option on a stock, the current stock price is 55 while exercise price is 45.

17. 17 Value of a Covered Call Position at Expiration

18. 18 Covered call example Go to yahoo.finance.com, click on “investing”. Select the Citi Corp. (ticker symbol: C). Choose “options”. Suppose you are interested in the July 2013 options (i.e., option expiration date is July 13, 2013) and decided to buy 100 shares of Citi Corp on 4/24/2013. In the meantime, you shorted 1 contract (100 shares) of Citi’s stock option with an exercise price of $____/share. What is the profit from the portfolio at the expiration date when the price of Citi on July 13, 2013 is $35?

19. 19 Intrinsic value - profit that could be made if the option was immediately exercised. Call: stock price - exercise price Put: exercise price - stock price Time value - the difference between the option price and the intrinsic value. Option Values

20. 20 Figure 21.1 Call Option Value before Expiration

21. 21 Restrictions on Option Value: Call Value cannot be negative Value cannot exceed the stock value Value of the call must be greater than the value of levered equity C > S 0 - ( X + D ) / ( 1 + R f ) T C > S 0 - PV ( X ) - PV ( D )

22. 22 If the prices are not equal arbitrage will be possible Put-call Parity

23. 23 Stock Price = 110 Call Price = 17 Put Price = 5 Risk Free = 5% Maturity = 1 yr X = 105 117 > 115 Since the leveraged equity is less expensive, acquire the low cost alternative and sell the high cost alternative Put Call Parity - Disequilibrium Example

32. 32 Black-Scholes Model with Dividends The call option formula applies to stocks that pay dividends. One approach is to replace the stock price with a dividend adjusted stock price. Replace S 0 with S 0 - PV (Dividends)

33. 33 Put Value Using Black-Scholes P = Xe -rT [1-N(d 2 )] - S 0 [1-N(d 1 )] Using the sample call data S = 100 r =.10 X = 95 g =.5 T =.25 95e -10x.25 (1-.5714)-100(1-.6664) = 6.35

34. 34 Determinants of Call Option Values

35. 35 Hedging: Hedge ratio or delta The number of stocks required to hedge against the price risk of holding one option. Call = N (d 1 ) Put = N (d 1 ) - 1 Option Elasticity Percentage change in the option’s value given a 1% change in the value of the underlying stock. Using the Black-Scholes Formula

37. 37 Buying Puts - results in downside protection with unlimited upside potential. Limitations Tracking errors if indexes are used for the puts. Maturity of puts may be too short. Hedge ratios or deltas change as stock values change. Portfolio Insurance

38. 38 Solution Synthetic Put Selling a proportion of shares equal to the put option’s delta and placing the proceeds in risk-free T-bills (page 763-764) Additional problem Delta changes with stock prices Solution: delta hedging But increase market volatilities October 19, 1987

39. 39 Hedge Ratios Change with Stock Prices

40. 40 Hedging On Mispriced Options Option value is positively related to volatility: If an investor believes that the volatility that is implied in an option’s price is too low, a profitable trade is possible. Profit must be hedged against a decline in the value of the stock. Performance depends on option price relative to the implied volatility.

41. 41 Hedging and Delta The appropriate hedge will depend on the delta. Recall the delta is the change in the value of the option relative to the change in the value of the stock. Example (page 767): Implied volatility = 33% Investor believes volatility should = 35% Option maturity = 60 days Put price P = $4.495 Exercise price and stock price = $90 Risk-free rate r = 4% Delta = -.453
