American put

NO.PZ2023091802000105

问题如下:

Stock UGT is trading at USD 100. A 1-year European call option on UGT with a strike price of USD 80 is trading at USD 30. No dividends are being paid in the following year. What should be the lower bound for an American put option on UGT with a strike price of USD 80, in order to not have arbitrage opportunities? Assume a continuously-compounded risk-free rate of 4% per year.

选项:

A.

6.1

B.

7.7

C.

5.7

D.

6.9

解释:

The European call option is the same as an American call option, since there are no dividends during the life of the options. American call and put prices satisfy the inequality.

S – K ≤ C – P ≤ S – Ke – rt, thus Ke – rt – S + C ≤ P ≤ K – S + C, therefore:6.86 ≤ P ≤ 10.

6.9 falls between 6.86 and 10.

此题为什么不用lower and upper bound for option 的公式p>=max(x-s0,0)

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


同学你好,

这道题既提到了American put,又提到了European put,所以要用american put-call parity来做:
