Suppose that the price S(t) in year t of stocks of Bancroft & Sons is modelled by a stochastic process which has a risk-neutral distribution at time t =
3 given
by
£120
with probability 0.3,
S(3):
=
£140
with probability 0.5,
£160
with probability 0.2.
Assume that interest is compounded continuously at nominal rate 2%.
(a) Assuming no-arbitrage, determine the current price S(0) of Bancroft & Sons stock. Enter your answer correct to the nearest pound.
Answer:
(b)
Determine the no-arbitrage price of a European put option on Bancroft & Sons stock with strike 150 and expiry 3 years. Enter your answer
correct to the nearest pound.
Answer:
A 2-year bond with face value £300,000 is redeemable at half-par and has semi-annual coupons paid at annual rate 4%. Suppose that interest is compounded
quarterly at nominal rate 3%.
(a)
Answer:
What is the amount of the first payment?
(b) What is the amount of the last payment?
Answer:
(c) Determine the no-arbitrage price of the bond. Enter your answer correct to the nearest pound.
Answer:
(d) Determine the duration of the cash flow generated by the bond. Enter your answer correct to 3 significant digits.
Answer:
Tick all statements which are correct, but do not tick those that are incorrect.
a.
A forward contract gives you the right but not the obligation to buy a certain product at a specified time in the future for a fixed price.
b. An American put option should always be exercised before its expiry time.
C.
The price of a put option and of a call option with the same expiration time and strike price can never be the same.
d. If there is a sporting event with 3 different outcomes with corresponding odds equal to o₁ = 2,02 = 2, and 03 =
opportunity for a suitable betting strategy.
= 3, then there is an arbitrage
e.
If there is arbitrage, then a risk-neutral distribution exists.
