Figure 1: Stock evolution for Problem 1.
(a) A colleague notices that in the model above, a movement up-down leads to the same value
as a movement down-up. He concludes that the model is a CRR model. Is your colleague
correct? (Explain your answer.)
(b) We consider a European put with strike price K = 10 and expiration T = 3 years. Find
the price of this option at time 0. Provide the replicating portfolio for the first period.
(c) In addition to the call above, we also consider a European call with strike price K = 10
and expiration T = 3 years. Which one has the highest price? (It is not necessary to
provide the price of the call.)
(d) We now assume a yearly interest rate r = 25%. We consider a Bermudan put option with
strike price K = 10. It works like a standard put, but you can exercise it…
In this problem, we consider a 2-period stock market model with evolution given in Fig. 1 below.
Each period corresponds to one year (At = 1). The yearly interest rate is r = 1/3 = 33%. This

- let h0, h1, h2,..., hn,....be the sequence defined by hn = (n C 2), (n choose 2). (n>=0). Determine the generating function for the sequence.arrow_forwardDraw the triangle and show all the workarrow_forwardThe average miles per gallon for a sample of 40 cars of model SX last year was 32.1, with a population standard deviation of 3.8. A sample of 40 cars from this year’s model SX has an average of 35.2 mpg, with a population standard deviation of 5.4. Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for this car brand (this year’s model minus last year’s).Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for last year’s model minus this year’s. What does the negative difference mean?arrow_forward
- A special interest group reports a tiny margin of error (plus or minus 0.04 percent) for its online survey based on 50,000 responses. Is the margin of error legitimate? (Assume that the group’s math is correct.)arrow_forwardSuppose that 73 percent of a sample of 1,000 U.S. college students drive a used car as opposed to a new car or no car at all. Find an 80 percent confidence interval for the percentage of all U.S. college students who drive a used car.What sample size would cut this margin of error in half?arrow_forwardYou want to compare the average number of tines on the antlers of male deer in two nearby metro parks. A sample of 30 deer from the first park shows an average of 5 tines with a population standard deviation of 3. A sample of 35 deer from the second park shows an average of 6 tines with a population standard deviation of 3.2. Find a 95 percent confidence interval for the difference in average number of tines for all male deer in the two metro parks (second park minus first park).Do the parks’ deer populations differ in average size of deer antlers?arrow_forward
