Textbook Question
Chapter 4.1, Problem 36CE
Solve.
Transportation It is estimated that shipping by rail produces 6.4 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions per ton of cargo for every 100 miles shipped. How many pounds of such emissions would a freight train produce if it shipped 8.4 tons of cargo 480 miles? (Round to the nearest pound.)

Question 3. We want to price a put option with strike price K and expiration T. Two financial
advisors estimate the parameters with two different statistical methods: they obtain the same
return rate μ, the same volatility σ, but the first advisor has interest r₁ and the second advisor
has interest rate r2 (r1>r2). They both use a CRR model with the same number of periods to
price the option. Which advisor will get the larger price? (Explain your answer.)
Question 5. We consider a put option with strike price K and expiration T. This option is
priced using a 1-period CRR model. We consider r > 0, and σ > 0 very large. What is the
approximate price of the option? In other words, what is the limit of the price of the option as
σ∞. (Briefly justify your answer.)
Question 6. You collect daily data for the stock of a company Z over the past 4 months (i.e. 80
days) and calculate the log-returns (yk)/(-1. You want to build a CRR model for the evolution
of the stock. The expected value and standard deviation of the log-returns are y = 0.06 and
Sy 0.1. The money market interest rate is r = 0.04. Determine the risk-neutral probability of
the model.
