XYZ stock is being traded at $115 today. Consider European put and call options with an exercise price of $110. The option expires in 91 days and the volatility is 0.50. The risk-free rate (continuously compounded) is 2.5%. Use actual/365 day count method.

A) Calculate the values of the put and call options. Assume there will be no dividend before the option expires.

B) Calculate the values of the put and call options, but assume now the continuously compounded dividend yield is 2%.

Fisher Black and Myron Scholes receive the 1997 Nobel Prize in Economic Science for their work on option pricing. Although the model is theoretically elegant and beautiful, it was not widely used to price options in real life because it calls for inherent volatility which is unobservable.However, given the dependability of risk-neutral approach, people today normally use risk-neutral approach to price the options first, then theyemploy Black-Scholes model to estimate the implied volatility. Based on the information given in the...

Problem 17-30 Black–Scholes and Dividends In addition to the five factors discussed in the chapter, dividends also affect the price of an option.
