(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
