volatility of 20 percent per year for this stock. Visually, our assumptions

A forward volatility of 20 percent per year suggests that after
|
||||
three years, the most likely range for the stock’s price according to the
|
||||
BSM will be around $41 on the low side to around $82 on the high
|
||||
side. Furthermore, we can tell from our investigations in Chapter 2 that
|
||||
this option will be worth something, but probably not much—about the
|
||||
same as or maybe a little more than the one-year, $60 strike call option
|
||||
we saw in Chapter 2.

Now let’s increase our assumption for volatility over the life of the
|
||||
contract to 40 percent per year. Increasing the volatility means that the
|
||||
BSM probability cone becomes wider at each point. In simple terms, what
|
||||
we are saying is that it is likely for there to be many more large swings in
|
||||
price over the term of the option, so the range of the possible outcomes
|
||||
is wider.
|
||||
Here is what the graph looks like if we double our assumptions
|
||||
regarding implied volatility from 20 to 40 percent:
