Listed in the accompanying table are weights (kg) of randomly selected U.S. Army male personnel measured in 1988 (from "ANSUR I 1988") and different weights (kg) of randomly selected U.S.
Army male personnel measured in 2012 (from "ANSUR II 2012"). Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Do not
assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Complete parts (a) and (b).

- This problem is based on the fundamental option pricing formula for the continuous-time model developed in class, namely the value at time 0 of an option with maturity T and payoff F is given by: We consider the two options below: Fo= -rT = e Eq[F]. 1 A. An option with which you must buy a share of stock at expiration T = 1 for strike price K = So. B. An option with which you must buy a share of stock at expiration T = 1 for strike price K given by T K = T St dt. (Note that both options can have negative payoffs.) We use the continuous-time Black- Scholes model to price these options. Assume that the interest rate on the money market is r. (a) Using the fundamental option pricing formula, find the price of option A.
