1.6. By manipulating Taylor series, determine the constant C for an error expansion
of (1.3) of the form wj−u' (xj) ~ Ch¼u (5) (x;), where u (5) denotes the fifth derivative.
Based on this value of C and on the formula for u(5) (x) with u(x) = esin(x), determine
the leading term in the expansion for w; - u'(x;) for u(x) = esin(x). (You will have
to find maxε[-T,T] |u(5) (x)| numerically.) Modify Program 1 so that it plots the
dashed line corresponding to this leading term rather than just N-4. This adjusted
dashed line should fit the data almost perfectly. Plot the difference between the two
on a log-log scale and verify that it shrinks at the rate O(h6).

- We consider the one-period model studied in class as an example. Namely, we assumethat the current stock price is S0 = 10. At time T, the stock has either moved up toSt = 12 (with probability p = 0.6) or down towards St = 8 (with probability 1−p = 0.4).We consider a call option on this stock with maturity T and strike price K = 10. Theinterest rate on the money market is zero.As in class, we assume that you, as a customer, are willing to buy the call option on100 shares of stock for $120. The investor, who sold you the option, can adopt one of thefollowing strategies: Strategy 1: (seen in class) Buy 50 shares of stock and borrow $380. Strategy 2: Buy 55 shares of stock and borrow $430. Strategy 3: Buy 60 shares of stock and borrow $480.
