Find the implied volatility (to 2 decimals, for example, �=8.23% ) of a Put option with a time to expiration of 11 months and a price of $6.13 The stock is currently trading at $47. The riskless rate is 2% per annum, and the strike/exercise price of the option is $50. Hint: compute the Put price using the same formula as in exercise 4 , as a function of the volatility �. Then use Solver to change the volatility cell in order to obtain a price of $6.13 \table[[�1=,-0.0614997,,So =,47],[�2=,,4,�=,50],[,,,�=,2%
Consider the following information on a particular
stock:
Stock price = $89
Exercise price = $85
Risk-free rate = 3% per year, compounded continuously
Maturity = 8 months
