Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we examine the structure of American option valuation problems and derive analytic valuation formulas under general underlying security price processes by an alternative but intuitive method. For alternative diffusion processes, we derive quot;closed formquot; analytic valuation formulas and analyze the implications of asset price dynamics on the early exercise premiums of American options. In this regard, we introduce useful and interesting diffusion processes into American option pricing literature, thus providing a wide range of choices of pricing models for various American-type derivative assets. This work offers a useful analytic framework for future empirical testing and practical applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for Real Options Analysis Course "Dr. Mun's latest book is a logical extension of the theory and application presented in Real Options Analysis. More specifically, the Real Options Analysis Course presents numerous real options examples and provides the reader with step-by-step problem-solving techniques. After having read the book, readers will better understand the underlying theory and the opportunities for applying real option theory in corporate decision-making." -Chris D. Treharne, President, Gibraltar Business Appraisals, Inc. "This text provides an excellent follow up to Dr. Mun's first book, Real Options Analysis. The cases in Real Options Analysis Course provide numerous examples of how the use of real options and the Real Options Analysis Toolkit software can assist in the valuation of strategic and managerial flexibility in a variety of arenas." -Charles T. Hardy, PhD, Chief Financial Officer & Director of Business Development, Panorama Research, Inc. "Most of us come to real options from the perspective of our own areas of expertise. Mun's great skill with this book is in making real options analysis understandable, relevant, and immediately applicable to the field within which you are working." -Robert Fourt, Partner, Gerald Eve (UK) "Mun provides a practical step-by-step guide to applying simulation and real options analysis-invaluable to those of us who are no longer satisfied with conventional valuation approaches alone." -Fred Kohli, Head of Portfolio Management, Syngenta Crop Protection Ltd.

Download or read book Basic Black-Scholes written by Timothy Falcon Crack and published by . This book was released on 2021-04 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Note: eBook now available; see Amazon author page for details.] THE AUTHOR: Dr. Crack studied PhD-level option pricing at MIT and Harvard Business School, taught undergrad and MBA option pricing at Indiana University (winning many teaching awards), was an independent consultant to the New York Stock Exchange, worked as an asset management practitioner in London, and has traded options for over 20 years. This unique mix of learning, teaching, consulting, practice, and trading is reflected in every page. This revised 5th edition gives clear explanations of Black-Scholes option pricing theory, and discusses direct applications of the theory to trading. The presentation does not go far beyond basic Black-Scholes for three reasons: First, a novice need not go far beyond Black-Scholes to make money in the options markets; Second, all high-level option pricing theory is simply an extension of Black-Scholes; and Third, there already exist many books that look far beyond Black-Scholes without first laying the firm foundation given here. The trading advice does not go far beyond elementary call and put positions because more complex trades are simply combinations of these. UNIQUE SELLING POINTS -The basic intuition you need to trade options for the first time, or interview for an options job. -Honest advice about trading: there is no simple way to beat the markets, but if you have skill this advice can help make you money, and if you have no skill but still choose to trade, this advice can reduce your losses. -Full immersion treatment of transactions costs (T-costs). -Lessons from trading stated in simple terms. -Stylized facts about the markets (e.g., how to profit from reversals, when are T-costs highest/lowest during the trading day, implications of the market for corporate control, etc.). -How to apply European-style Black-Scholes pricing to the trading of American-style options. -Leverage through margin trading compared to leverage through options, including worked spreadsheet example. -Black-Scholes pricing code for the HP17B, HP19B, and HP12C. -Three downloadable spreadsheets. One allows the user to forecast T-costs for option positions using simple models. Another allows the user to explore option sensitivities including the Greeks. -Practitioner Bloomberg Terminal screenshots to aid learning. -Simple discussion of continuously-compounded returns. -Introduction to "paratrading" (trading stocks side-by-side with options to generate additional profit). -Unique "regrets" treatment of early exercise decisions and trade-offs for American-style calls and puts. -Unique discussion of put-call parity and option pricing. -How to calculate Black-Scholes in your head in 10 seconds (also in Heard on The Street: Quantitative Questions from Wall Street Job Interviews). -Special attention to arithmetic Brownian motion with general pricing formulae and comparisons to Bachelier (1900) and Black-Scholes. -Careful attention to the impact of dividends in analytical American option pricing. -Dimensional analysis and the adequation formula (relating FX call and FX put prices through transformed Black-Scholes formulae). -Intuitive review of risk-neutral pricing/probabilities and how and why these are related to physical pricing/probabilities. -Careful distinction between the early Merton (non-risk-neutral) hedging-type argument and later Cox-Ross/Harrison-Kreps risk-neutral pricing -Simple discussion of Monte-Carlo methods in science and option pricing. -Simple interpretations of the Black-Scholes formula and PDE and implications for trading. -Careful discussion of conditional probabilities as they relate to Black-Scholes. -Intuitive treatment of high-level topics e.g., bond-numeraire interpretation of Black-Scholes (where N(d2) is P(ITM)) versus the stock-numeraire interpretation (where N(d1) is P(ITM)). -Introduction and discussion of the risk-neutral probability that a European-style call or put option is ever in the money during its life.

Book excerpt: In a Black and Scholes (1973) world I study the pricing performance of a closed-form lower bound to American option values based on an exercise strategy corresponding to a flat exercise boundary. The lower bound has a simple two-step implementation akin to the Barone-Adesi and Whaley (1987) formula and shows superior pricing performance in the Out-of-The-Money region and for long maturities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of quantitative concepts and models essential to understanding financial markets are introduced and explained in this broad overview of financial analytical tools designed for financial practitioners, advanced students, and researchers lacking a strong mathematical background. Coverage ranges from matrix mathematics and elementary calculus with their applications to portfolio and fixed income analysis to probability and stochastic processes with their applications to option pricing. The book is sequenced by mathematics topics, most of which are followed by relevant usage to areas such as valuation, risk management, derivatives, back-testing of financial models, and market efficiency. The book begins by motivating the need for understanding quantitative technique with a brief discussion of financial mathematics and financial literature review. Preliminary concepts including geometric expansion, elementary statistics, and basic portfolio techniques are introduced in chapters 2 and 3. Chapters 4 and 5 present matrix mathematics and differential calculus applied to yield curves, APT, state preference theory, binomal option pricing, mean-variance analysis, and other applications. Integral calculus and differential equations follow in chapter 6. The rest of the book covers applications of probability, statistics and stochastic processes as well as a sampling of topics from numerical methods used in financial analysis.

This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early exercise opportunity of an American option makes it challenging to price and an array of approaches have been proposed in the vast literature on this topic. In The Numerical Solution of the American Option Pricing Problem, Carl Chiarella, Boda Kang and Gunter Meyer focus on two numerical approaches that have proved useful for finding all prices, hedge ratios and early exercise boundaries of an American option. One is a finite difference approach which is based on the numerical solution of the partial differential equations with the free boundary problem arising in American option pricing, including the method of lines, the component wise splitting and the finite difference with PSOR. The other approach is the integral transform approach which includes Fourier or Fourier Cosine transforms. Written in a concise and systematic manner, Chiarella, Kang and Meyer explain and demonstrate the advantages and limitations of each of them based on their and their co-workers'' experiences with these approaches over the years. Contents: Introduction; The Merton and Heston Model for a Call; American Call Options under Jump-Diffusion Processes; American Option Prices under Stochastic Volatility and Jump-Diffusion Dynamics OCo The Transform Approach; Representation and Numerical Approximation of American Option Prices under Heston; Fourier Cosine Expansion Approach; A Numerical Approach to Pricing American Call Options under SVJD; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index; About the Authors. Readership: Post-graduates/ Researchers in finance and applied mathematics with interest in numerical methods for American option pricing; mathematicians/physicists doing applied research in option pricing. Key Features: Complete discussion of different numerical methods for American options; Able to handle stochastic volatility and/or jump diffusion dynamics; Able to produce hedge ratios efficiently and accurately"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American options provide early exercise opportunities to pose the additional difficulty to obtain the closed-form solution. In this study, a recursive formula is developed for determining the optimal exercise price of American call options with dividend based on the backward dynamic programming recursions and the Black-Scholes model combined with the Martingale pricing and the Girsanov Theorem. This recursive formula can be applied to two kinds of American call option pricing methods. One is analytical (closed-form) solution method, and the other is numerically analytical solution method. Numerically analytical solution method is an approach using the recursive formula through backward iterations only so that it is unable to obtain a general closed-form solution of America call option. The other one applies the backward recursive formula and the Taylor Series expansion to determine a general closed-form solution of the American call option.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quadratic approximation to the valuation of american options on stocks is revisited, constructing a pricing approach based on the fact that the early exercise policy should be chosen to maximize the value of the option. At the first part of the paper, we apply this approach (boundary-optimality) in the setting of the pricing model suggested in Barone-Adesi and Whaley (1987). We enrich their original valuation setting with an additional parameter, computed with the help of a boundary-optimality boundary condition. This approach enhances the accuracy performance of the Barone-Adesi and Whaley (1987) approximation. In the second part of the paper we introduce a novel approximation approach, where option value is the product of two functions, one of the being a function of time and the other one being a function of the stock price. Applying the principle that the early exercise policy should maximize option value, this alternative option pricing technique provides accurate results for american call and put options.
