O,apter 33: Mathematical Considerations for Index Products
|
||||
EUROPEAN EXERCISE
|
||||
647
|
||||
To account for European exercise, one basically ignores the fact that an in-the-money
|
||||
put option's minimum value is its intrinsic value. European exercise puts can trade at
|
||||
a discount to intrinsic value. Consider the situation from the viewpoint of a conver
|
||||
sion arbitrage. If one buys stock, buys puts, and sells calls, he has a conversion arbi
|
||||
trage. In the case of a European exercise option, he is forced to carry the position to
|
||||
expiration in order to remove it: He cannot exercise early, nor can he be called early.
|
||||
Therefore, his carrying costs will always be the maximum value to expiration. These
|
||||
carrying costs are the amount of the discount of the put value.
|
||||
For a deeply in-the-money put, the discount will be equal to the carrying
|
||||
charges required to carry the striking price to expiration:
|
||||
Carry = s Ji - 1 ] L (1+ r)t
|
||||
Less deeply in-the-money puts, that is, those with deltas less than - 1.00, would
|
||||
not require the full discounting factor. Rather, one could multiply the discounting
|
||||
factor by the absolute value of the put' s delta to arrive at the appropriate discounting
|
||||
factor.
|
||||
FUTURES OPTIONS
|
||||
A modified Black-Scholes model, called the Black Model, can be used to evaluate
|
||||
futures options. See Chapter 29 on futures for a futures discussion. Essentially, the
|
||||
adjustment is as follows: Use 0% as the risk-free rate in the Black-Scholes model and
|
||||
obtain a theoretical call value; then discount that result.
|
||||
Black model:
|
||||
Call value= e-rt x Black-Scholes call value [using r = 0%]
|
||||
where
|
||||
r is the risk-free interest rate
|
||||
and t is the time to expiration in years.
|
||||
The relationship between a futures call theoretical value and that of a put can
|
||||
also be discussed from the model:
|
||||
Call = Put + e-rf(J - s)
|
||||
where
|
||||
f is the futures price
|
||||
ands is the striking price.
