Chapter 21, Problem 6PS
Black–Scholes model Use the Black–Scholes formula to value the following options:
- a. A call option written on a stock selling for $60 per share with a $60 exercise price. The stock’s standard deviation is 6% per month. The option matures in three months. The risk-free interest rate is 1% per month.
- b. A put option written on the same stock at the same time, with the same exercise price and expiration date.
Now for each of these options, find the combination of stock and risk-free asset that would replicate the option.

Suppose that a call option with a strike price of $48 expires in one year and has a current market price of $5.17. The market price of the
underlying stock is $46.25, and the risk-free rate is 1%. Use put-call parity to calculate the price of a put option on the same underlying stock
with a strike of $48 and an expiration of one year.
The price of a put option on the same underlying stock with a strike of $48 and an expiration of one year is $. (Round to the nearest cent.)
