Cummins states that long-/short-hedge fund
managers seek to identify and exploit any mispricing that may exist between the
price of an option and the price of its underlying stock, utilizing a
replicating strategy. Cummins asks Spelding to assess the three scenarios
outlined in Exhibit 2, based on the information in Exhibit 1 and assuming that
the price of a one-year European-style call option is $19.25.
Exhibit
1: Binomial Model Variables and Values
Exhibit
2: Scenarios and Replicating Strategies
With respect to the replicating
strategies, which scenario is most
likely correct:
选项:
A.Scenario
1.
Scenario
2.
C.
Scenario
3.
解释:
The
$19.25 price of the call option exceeds its value of $15.44, as calculated
based on both the no-arbitrage approach and the expectations approach.
Accordingly, the replicating strategy per 100 shares is to (1) sell 1 option, (2)
buy h shares, and (3) borrow h * (up/down factor price + up/down call payoff).
The
call option calculations follow:
•
No-arbitrage approach:
Hedge ratio
Call Option value
•
Expectations approach:
Probability of an up move π=0.45
Call Option value
如果说long call=long stock+卖bond借钱,那现在需要short call为什么仍然是buy stock,而不是short呢
