20. Put Option: Can sell IBM for $200 The current value of a Put Option depends on: 1) the current price of the underlier - 2) the strike price + 3) the underlier volatility + 4) the time to expiration + 5) the risk-free interest rate - IBM’s price is $205 NOWEXPIRATIONPAST Bought a put option on IBM for $1 x = $200 a) IBM’s market price is $190 b) IBM’s market price is $210 Question: what is the value of the option right now?

22. P = –S[N(–d1)] + Xe -rt [N(–d2)] d1 = {ln(S/X) + (r +  2 /2)t}  t d2 = d1 -  t P = value of a European put option, S = current spot price, X = option “strike” or “exercise” price, t = time to option expiration (in years), r = riskless rate of interest (per annum),  = spot return volatility (per annum), N(z) = probability that a standardized normal variable will be less than z. In Excel, this can be calculated using NORMSDIST(d). Delta for a Call = N(d1) Delta for a Put = N(d1) -1

24.  Example: S = $ 42, X = $40 t = 0.5 r = 0.10 (10% p.a.) s = 0.2 (20% p.a.)  Output: d1 = 0.7693 d2 = 0.6278 N(d1) = 0.7791 N(d2) = 0.7349 C = $4.76 and P=$0.81
