问题如下:

For the Alpha Company option, the positions to take advantage of the arbitrage opportunity are to write the call and:

选项:

A.

short shares of Alpha stock and lend.

B.

buy shares of Alpha stock and borrow.

C.

short shares of Alpha stock and borrow.

解释:

You should sell (write) the overpriced call option and then go long (buy) the replicating portfolio for a call option. The replicating portfolio for a call option is to buy h shares of the stock and borrow the present value of (hS- - c-).

c = hS + PV(-hS- + c-).

h = (c+ - c-)/(S+ - S-) = (6 - 0)/(56 - 46) = 0.60.

For the example in this case, the value of the call option is 3.714. If the option is overpriced at, say, 4.50, you short the option and have a cash flow at Time 0 of +4.50. You buy the replicating portfolio of 0.60 shares at 50 per share (giv­ing you a cash flow of -30) and borrow (1/1.05) x [(0.60 x 46) - 0] = (1/1.05) x 27.6 = 26.287. Your cash flow for buying the replicating portfolio is -30 + 26.287 = -3.713. Your net cash flow at Time 0 is + 4.50 - 3.713 = 0.787. Your net cash flow at Time 1 for either the up move or down move is zero. You have made an arbitrage profit of 0.787.

In tabular form, the cash flows are as follows:

write the call就是卖call option吗?

所以对冲,就用h*s0-PV(hs1- - c1-)的形式(long stock short bond)复制一个call?

嗨,爱思考的PZer你好:


write the call意思是卖出看涨期权。


由于这个看涨期权是被高估了,所以要卖出它。并且利用buy shares +  borrow the present value of (hS- - c-)来复制一个call option去实现套利。

buy shares是h*s0,

borrow the present value 可以是 + PV(-hS- + c-),或者写成-PV(hs- - c-),二者是等价的。
