First calculate the delta of the following option. Then use this delta to ESTIMATE the new price of a European call option if the stock price increases by $4. The option has the following the following initial parameters:

s0 = $40
k = $44 
r = 10%
sigma = 20%
T = 0.75 years

(required precision 0.01 +/- 0.01)

 

Greeks Reference Guide:

  • Delta = ∂π/∂S
  • Theta = ∂π/∂t
  • Gamma = (∂2π)/(∂S2)
  • Vega = ∂π/∂σ
  • Rho = ∂π/∂r
