第一章1.4 仔细解释卖出一个看涨期权与买入一个看跌期权的差别卖出一个看涨期权涉及到给他人一个买入你某项财产的权利,它将给你带来的收益为-max (st-k,0)=min(k-st,0)买入一个看跌期权涉及到从他人手里买入一个期权,带来的收益为max(k-st,0)他们都有一个可能性的收入k-st,当你卖出看涨期权,收入为负值或0,这是因为交易对手可以选择是否执行。

当你买入一个看跌期权,你的收入为0或正直,这是因为你选择执行与否1.5 你认为某股票价格将要上升,股票当前价格为29美元,三个月期限,执行价格为30美元的看涨期权价格为2.9美元,你共有美金5800元,说明两种投资模式,并简单说明一下两种模式的优缺点有两种方案,即买入200股股票或买入2000份看涨期权,当股票价格上涨航行好,第二种方案将得到更高的回报。

举例来说,当股价上涨为40元,此时收益为2000(40-30)-5800=14200 而第一种反感只有200(40-29)=2200元收益,但当股价下跌,第二种方案将有更大的损失。

当股票价格下跌至25元,第一种方案损失为200(29-25)=800元,第二种方案则带来5800元的损失,这个例子证明了期权有一定的杠杆效率1.26当前黄金市价为每盎司600美元,一个一年期远期合约的执行价格为800美元,一个套利者能以每年10%的利率借入资金,套利者应如何做才能达到套利目的?这里我们假设黄金存储费用为0.同时黄金不会带来任何利息收入这个套利者可以借入资金买入100盎司黄金现货和卖出一个100盎司于一年后交割的期货合约,这就意味着黄金以600美元每盎司买入以800美元每盎司卖出,收益率约为33.3%,远高于10%的接入率,这是一个很好的盈利机会,套利者应尽可能多的买入黄金现货及预期数量相匹配的期货合约1.27 股票当前价格为94美金,同时,三个月期,执行价格为95美元的欧式期权价格为4.7美元,一个投资者认为股价会上涨,但他并不知道应该买入100股股票或买入2000个(20份)期权,这两种投资所需资金均为9400美元,此时你会给出什么建议?股价涨到什么样的水平会使得期权投资盈利更好?投资于看涨期权会带来高收益但是会有高风险,如果股价停止在94美元,买入看涨期权的投资者损失9400美元,儿买入股票的投资者什么也没有损失,如果股价上涨到120美元,买入期权的投资者会得到2000(120-95)-9400=40600美元的收益,而买入股票的投资者会得到100(120-94)-9400=2600元,当股价为s时,这两种投资的收益相等,100(s-94)=2000(s-95),s-100。

It derives its value from the performance of the underlying asset.2. Option: the right, but not the obligation, to buy (for a call option) or sell (for a put option) a specific amount of a given stock, commodity, currency, index, or debt, at a specified price (the strike price) during a specified period of time.3. American Options: can be exercised at any time up to the expiration date. European Options: can be exercised only on the expiration date itself.4. Forward Contract: an over-the-counter agreement between two parties, a buyer and a seller, that calls for the delivery of an asset at a future point in time with a price agreed upon today.5. Long Party: the party agrees to buy. Short Party: sell.6. Futures Contract: a forward contract that has standardized terms, is traded on an organized exchange, and follows a daily settlement procedure in which the losses of one party to the contract are paid to the other party.7. Swap: an over-the-counter derivative in which two parties make a series of payments to each other at specific dates.8. Financial Engineering: the notion that you can use a combination of assets and financial derivatives to construct cash flow streams that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to obtain.9. Hedger: If someone bears an economic risk and uses derivative markets to reduce that risk, the person is a hedger.10. Speculators: bet on the movement of the market to make windfall profits. Speculators attempt to profit from guessing the direction of the market.11. Arbitrage: a type of transaction in which an investor seeks to make a riskless profit when the same good sells for two different prices.12. Arbitrageurs: persons actively engaged in the arbitrage seeking out minor pricing discrepancies.13. Offsetting: most traders close out a position prior to the delivery period14.

金融工程课后题7习题解答zhoujiaLite

金融工程课后题7习题解答zhoujiaLite

CH 77.1 一位投资者购买了一个执行价格为X的看涨期权并出售了一个相同执行价格的看跌期权。

请描述他的头寸情况。

解:投资者头寸状况为:max(S T-X,0)-max(X-S T,0)此头寸相当于执行价格为X的远期合约。

当X与远期合约价格相同时,合约价值为0,此时看涨期权与看跌期权价值相等。

7.2请说明为什么欧式期权总是不如有相同标的物、相同执行价格、相同到期日的美式期权值钱。

解:美式期权持有者除具有欧式期权持有者所拥有的所有权利外,还有提早执行权。

因此,美式期权至少应与相应的欧式期权有相同的价值。

7.3请解释为什么美式期权的价值总是大于等于它的内在价值。

解:美式期权的持有者有立即执行期权,实现期权内在价值的权利,因此,美式期权的价值至少应等于其内在价值。

7.4列举影响期权价格的6个因素。

解:影响期权价格的6个因素有:标的资产价格、期权的执行价格、无风险利率、资产价格的波动率、期限以及持有期间收益。

7.5基于无红利支付股票的看涨期权,期限为4个月,执行价格为$25,股票价格为$28,无风险利率为8%。

该看涨期权价格下限为多少?解:该看涨期权的价格下限为:28-25×0.08*0.3333e-=$3.667.6基于无红利支付股票的欧式看跌期权,期限为1个月,股票价格为$12,执行价格为$15,无风险年利率6%,该期权的价格下限为多少?解:该看跌期权价格下限为:15×0.06*0.083333e--12=$2.937.7请给出两个原因说明为什么早执行无红利支付股票的美式看涨期权不是最好的。

第一条原因应包括货币时间价值。

第二条原因在利率为零时也成立。

解:1)推迟执行可推迟支付期权的执行价格,期权持有者可赚取执行价格更长时间的时间价值;2)推迟执行可提供保值价值,避免执行日时股价低于执行价格。

假设期权购买者有现金X ,且利率为0。

提早执行会使期权购买者头寸在到期日为T S , 而推迟执行买方头寸在到期日则为max (X,T S )7.8 “提前执行美式看跌期权是在货币的时间价值与看跌期权的保险价值之间的权衡。

第1章导言练习题1.1请解释远期多头与远期空头的区别。

答:远期多头指交易者协定将来以某一确定价格购入某种资产;远期空头指交易者协定将来以某一确定价格售出某种资产。

1.2请详细解释套期保值、投机与套利的区别。

答:套期保值指交易者采取一定的措施补偿资产的风险暴露;投机不对风险暴露进行补偿,是一种“赌博行为”;套利是采取两种或更多方式锁定利润。

1.3请解释签订购买远期价格为$50的远期合同与持有执行价格为$50的看涨期权的区别。

答:第一种情况下交易者有义务以50$购买某项资产(交易者没有选择),第二种情况下有权利以50$购买某项资产(交易者可以不执行该权利)。

1.4一位投资者出售了一个棉花期货合约,期货价格为每磅50美分,每个合约交易量为50,000磅。

请问期货合约结束时,当合约到期时棉花价格分别为(a)每磅48.20美分;(b)每磅51.30美分时,这位投资者的收益或损失为多少?答:(a)合约到期时棉花价格为每磅$0.4820时,交易者收入:($0.5000-$0.4820)×50,000=$900;(b)合约到期时棉花价格为每磅$0.5130时,交易者损失:($0.5130-$0.5000)×50,000=$6501.5假设你出售了一个看跌期权,以$120执行价格出售100股IBM的股票,有效期为3个月。

IBM股票的当前价格为$121。

你是怎么考虑的?你的收益或损失如何?答:当股票价格低于$120时,该期权将不被执行。

当股票价格高于$120美元时,该期权买主执行该期权,我将损失100(st-x)。

1.6你认为某种股票的价格将要上升。

现在该股票价格为$29,3个月期的执行价格为$30的看跌期权的价格为$2.90.你有$5,800资金可以投资。

现有两种策略:直接购买股票或投资于期权,请问各自潜在的收益或损失为多少?答:股票价格低于$29时,购买股票和期权都将损失,前者损失为$5,800$29×(29-p),后者损失为$5,800;当股票价格为(29,30),购买股票收益为$5,800$29×(p-29),购买期权损失为$5,800;当股票价格高于$30时,购买股票收益为$5,800 $29×(p-29),购买期权收益为$$5,800$29×(p-30)-5,800。

Ch1313.1不是可交易证券价格的变量的风险价格是如何定义的?解:不是可交换证券价格的变量的风险市场价格是通过求可交换证券的风险市场价格而来,但必须满足该可交换证券的价格与不是可交换证券价格的变量瞬态完全正相关。

13.2假设黄金的风险市场价格为零,如果贮存成本为每年1%,无风险年利率为6%,那么黄金价格的期望增长率为多少?解:由公式m-λs=r-y+u,而λ=0,r=0.06,y=0,u=0.01所以m=0.07.即期望增长率为0.07。

13.3一个证券的价格与以下两个变量正相关:铜的价格和日元兑美元的汇率,假设这两个变量的风险市场价格分别为0.5和0.1。

若铜的价格固定,则该证券的波动率为每年8%;如果日元对美元的汇率固定,则该证券的波动率为每年12%。

无风险利率为每年7%。

证券的预期回报率为多少?如果两个变量彼此之间是不相关的,该证券的波动率为多少?解:(1)令u为证券的预期收益率,已知无风险利率r=0.07,铜价和日圆兑美圆汇率的风险市场价格分别为λ1=0.5和λ2=0.1,铜价固定时汇率引起的证券波动率为σ2=0.08,汇率固定时铜价引起的证券波动率为σ1=0.12。

因此由公式u-r=λ1σ1+λ2σ2可得u=0.138即证券的预期收益率为每年0.138(2)由σ1dz1+σ2dz2=dz3代入σ1,σ2的值可得(s)*T m TS S eλ-⨯为0.144即铜价和日圆兑美圆汇率不相关时证券的波动率为0.14413.4某个石油公司只是为了开发德克萨斯一个很小区域的石油。

其价值主要依赖于如下两个随机变量:石油的价格和以探明石油的储存量。

讨论:这两个变量中的风险市场价格为正数、负数还是零?解:第二个变量的风险市场价格为0。

这是因为这种风险是非系统的,它与经济社会的其他风险完全不相关,投资者不能因为承担这种不可转换的风险而要求更高的回报。

13.5通过两个无红利支付的交易证券和两个依赖于这两个无红利支付交易证券价格的衍生工具构成一个无风险组合,推导出这个衍生工具的微分方程。

END-OF-CHAPTER QUESTIONS AND PROBLEMSChapter 11. Business risk is the risk associated with a particular line of business, whereas financial risk is the risk associated with stock prices, exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. An example would be that a firm might be in the business of manufacturing furniture. Business risk would reflect the uncertainty of the furniture market, whereas financial risk would reflect the risk associated with the interest rates that would impact their borrowing costs. In addition a business might also be affected by exchange rates. Some of the financial risks can also be business risks. The business risk of a bank, for example, is highly affected by interest rate and exchange rate risk.2. Real assets consist of the tangible assets of the economy; however, for our purposes we also define them to include such intangible assets as management talent, ideas, brand names, etc. They are distinguished from financial assets, which are securities. These securities represent claims on business firms, which own the real assets, or on governments.3. An investor who is risk averse does not like risk and will not take on additional risk without the expectation of higher return. Such an individual will try to get the highest return for a given amount of risk or the lowest risk for a given amount of return. An individual who is risk neutral will simply seek the highest return without regard to risk.4. Financial markets distinguish the qualities of stocks and bonds by their prices. The markets set the price so that the return expected by investors is appropriate for the level of risk. In competitive and efficient markets, the expected return will vary directly with the level of risk. If one wishes to earn a higher return, it is necessary to assume more risk. This is the risk-return trade-off. Investors trade off risk against return.The risk-return trade-off will also hold in derivative markets. The risk-return trade-off is a fundamental result of the nature of competition in the marketplace. Attractive, low-risk investments will have their prices driven up and this will lower the expected returns. High-risk investments will have their prices driven down and this will result in higher expected returns.5. The expected return consists of the risk-free rate and a risk premium. The risk-free rate is the return one expects from investing money today and, thereby, foregoing the consumption that could be obtained. A risk premium is the additional return that one expects to receive by virtue of assuming risk.6. An efficient market is one in which prices reflect the true economic values of the assets trading therein. Inefficient markets, no one can earn returns that are more than commensurate with the level of risk. Efficient markets are characterized by low transaction costs and by the rapid rate at which new information is incorporated into prices.7. Arbitrage is a type of investment transaction that seeks to profit when identical goods are priced differently. Buying an item at one price and immediately selling it at another is a type of arbitrage. Because of the combined activities of arbitrageurs, identical goods, primarily financial assets, cannot sell for different prices for long. This is the law of one price. Arbitrage helps make our markets efficient by assuring that prices are in line with what they are supposed to be. In short, we cannot get something for nothing. A situation involving two identical goods or portfolios that are not priced equivalently would be exploited by arbitrageurs until their prices were equal. The "one price" that an asset must be is called the "theoretical fair value."11. Derivative markets provide a means of adjusting the risk of spot market investments to a more acceptable level and identifying the consensus market beliefs. They make trading easier and less costly and spot markets more efficient. These markets also provide a means of speculating.Chapter 33. European call: We know that its price cannot exceed S0 but must exceed Max(0, S0 - X(1+r)-T). With an infinite time to expiration, the present value of X is zero so the lower bound is S0 and, since the upper bound is S0, the call price must be S0. American call: We know that its price cannot exceed S0 but it must be at least as valuable as a European call. Thus its value must also be S0. Note that if exercised early it would be worth only S0 - X so it will never be exercised early.4. Ordinarily the option with the longer time to expiration would sell for more. If both options were deep out of-the-money, however, they could both sell for essentially nothing. The market would be expecting that both the shorter- and longer-lived options will expire out-of-the-money.5. If both options were deep out-of-the-money, they might have prices of zero. As in the previous question, the two options are expected to expire out-of-the-money.6. The call is underpriced, so buy the call, sell short the stock, and buy risk-free bonds with face value of X. The cash received from the stock is greater than the cost of the call and bonds. Thus, there is a positive cash flow up front. The payoffs from the portfolio at expiration are as follows:If S T < X,- S T (from the stock)X (from the bonds)the total, X - S T, is positive3-2If S T ≥ XS T - X (from the call)- S T (from the stock)X (from the bonds)the total is zero.The portfolio generates a positive cash flow up front and there is no cash outflow at expiration.7. Time value is a measure of the amount of uncertainty in an option. Uncertainty relates to whether the option will expire in- or out-of-the-money. When the option is deep in-the-money, there is little uncertainty about the fact that the option will expire in-the-money. The option will then begin to behave about like the stock. Then the option is deep-out-the-money, there is also little uncertainty since it is likely to finish out-of-the money. When the option is at-the-money there is considerable uncertainty about how it will finish.8. Assuming the stock pays no dividends, there is no reason to exercise a call early (this obviously presumes the call is American). The tendency to believe that exercising an option because the stock can go up no further ignores the fact that an option can generally be sold. Exercising an option throws away any chance that the stock can go up further. If the stock falls, the option holder would be hurt, but if the option holder exercised and became a stock holder, he would also be hurt by a falling stock price. There is simply no reason to give away the time value that arises because of the possibility that the stock can always go further upward. In simple, mathematical terms, exercising captures only the intrinsic value S0 - X. The call can always be sold for at least S0 - X (1 + r) -T.9. The paradox is resolved by recalling that if the option expires out-of-the-money, it does not matter how far out-of-the-money it is. The loss to the option holder is limited to the premium paid. For example, suppose the stock price is $24, the exercise price is $20, and the call price is $6. Higher volatility increases the chance of greater gains to the holder of the call. It also increases the chance of a larger stock price decrease. If, however, the stock price does end up below $20, the investor's loss is the same regardless of whether the stock price at expiration is $19 or $1. If the stock were purchased instead of the call, the loss would obviously be greater if the stock price went to $1 than if it went to $19. For this reason, holders of stocks dislike volatility, while holders of calls like volatility. A similar argument applies to puts.10. The minimum value of an American put is Max(0, X - S0). This is always higher than the lower bound of a European put, X (1 + r) -T - S0, except at expiration when the two are equal.11. When buying a call option, one hopes to exercise it at a later date. Thus, the exercise price will be paid out later. If interest rates are higher, additional interest can be earned on the money that will eventually be paid out as the exercise price. When buying a put option, one hopes to exercise it later, thus receiving the exercise price. If interest rates are higher, the put is less valuable because the holder is foregoing interest by having to wait to exercise the put. Higher interest rates make the present value of the exercise price be lower. In the case of the call, this is good because the call holder anticipates having to pay out the exercise price. For the put holder this is bad because the put holder anticipates receiving the exercise price.12. If the put price is higher than predicted by the model, the put is overpriced. Then the put should be sold. The funds should be used to construct a portfolio consisting of a long call and risk-free bonds with face value of X, and a short position in the stock. You can (and should) verify that this portfolio has a payoff at expiration that is the same as that of the put. Thus, if you sell the put for more than it costs to construct this portfolio, you can create a portfolio that offsets your put and have some money left over.13. An American call is exercised early only to capture a dividend. When a stock goes ex-dividend, the call will lose value as the stock drops. This will cause a loss in value to the holder of the call. The call holder knows this loss will be incurred as soon as the stock goes ex-dividend. If the call were exercised just before the stock goes ex-dividend, however, the call holder would capture the stock and the dividend, which might be enough to offset the otherwise loss in the value of the call. For a put, however, dividends are not necessary to make the argument that it might be optimal to exercise early. The holder of an American put faces a situation in which the gains are limited to the exercise price. Since the stock price can go down only to zero, early exercise of a put on a bankrupt firm would obviously be advisable. But the firm does not have to go bankrupt. If the stock price is low enough, the gains from waiting for it to go lower are not worth the wait. If dividends were added to the picture, however, they would discourage early exercise. The more dividends paid, the lower the stock price is driven and the more valuable it is to hold on to the put.Chapter 41. When we price an option according to its boundary conditions, we do not find an exact price for the option. We provide only limits on the maximum and minimum price of an option or group of options. In the case of options differing by exercise prices or in the case of put-call parity, we can price only the relationship or difference between the option prices. We cannot price each option individually without an option pricing odel; however, an option pricing model must provide prices that conform to the boundary conditions. Because boundary condition rules require fewer assumptions, we can say that they are more generally applicable and are more likely to hold in practice. They are incomplete, however, in the sense that they do not tell us exactly what the option price should be, which is what an option pricing model does tell us.2. A binomial option pricing model enables us to see the relationship between the stock price and the call price. The model shows, in a simple framework, how to construct a riskless portfolio by appropriately weighting the stock against the option. By noting that the riskless portfolio should return the risk-free rate, we can see what the call price must be. We can also understand the forces that bring the call option price in line if it is not priced according to the model. In addition, the model illustrates the importance of revising the hedge ratio. Finally, the model is probably the best way to handle the problem of pricing an American option.3. For a call, a hedge portfolio will consist of n shares of stock and one short call. The shares of stock, n, will be a long position that will reflect the next two possible values of the call and stock. The call is short because the call and stock move opposite each other, so a short position in the call is needed to offset a long position in the stock. If the option is a put, a long position in n shares will be hedged by a long position in one put. The number of shares, n, is also a reflection of the next two possible option and stock values. The put is long because it already moves opposite to the stock.4. This means that the option is trading in the market for a price that is lower than its theoretical fair value. Consequently, the option is underpriced. An underpriced option should be bought. To hedge the position, one should sell n shares of stock, where n is the hedge ratio as defined in the chapter.5. At each point in the binomial tree, the option price is computed based on the next two possible prices, weighted by the appropriate probability values and discounted back one period. If the option can be exercised early, we determine its intrinsic value, i.e., the value it would have if it were exercised at that point. If the intrinsic value is greater, it replaces the computed value. This is done at all nodes. Note that it is quite possible that the option will be exercised at many different nodes.6. A path independent problem is one in which the only values that matter in determining the current price are the values at expiration. A particular expiration value is the same regardless of the sequence of up and down moves the stock took to get to that point. A path dependent model is one in which the sequence of up and down moves does matter. For example, suppose the stock goes down, up and then up. Contrast that with up, up and down. If the option is a European put, it does not matter which sequence the stock followed. Where it is at expiration is the only thing that matters. If the option is, however, an American put, the down, up, up sequence could lead to early exercise when it makes that first move down, whereas the up, up, down sequence is unlikely to lead to early exercise.Chapter 51. In a discrete time model, the stock price can make a jump to only one of two possible values. The length of time over which the move can be made is finite. In a continuous time model, the stock price can jump to an infinite number of possibilities. The length of time over which the move can be made is infinitesimal (very, very small). The difference between the two models is perhaps best described as in the text as the difference between still photos and a movie.2. The familiar normal or bell-shaped distribution is a symmetric probability distribution that depends only on the mean and variance. A lognormal distribution is skewed, having more extreme right values. A lognormal distribution, however, is normal in the logarithm. Thus, if x is lognormally distributed, its logarithm, lnx, is normally distributed. With respect to stock prices, the logarithm is of the rate of return. That is, let (S1 –S0)/S0 be defined as the return over period 0 to period 1. Then if it is lognormally distributed, ln(S1/S0) is normally distributed. Note what appears to be slight inconsistency: (S1 – S0)/S0 is a percentage return whereas S1/S0 is 1.0 plus the percentage return. That does not matter as we can always shift a normal distribution by adding a constant such as 1.0 and it does not affect the fact that it is normally distributed. It just slides it over.3. The Black-Scholes model assumes no dividends, but actually this was just for convenience to allow us to start at the simplest level. If the dividends are appropriately modeled, the Black-Scholes model handles stocks with dividends with only the minor adjustment that we must remove the present value of the dividends from the stock price before using it in the model. We can do this by subtracting the present value of the stream of discrete dividends over the life of the model or by discounting the stock price by the dividend yield rate over the life of the model.4. The variables in the binomial model are S0 (the stock price), X (the exercise price), r (the discrete risk-free rate), u (one plus the return on the stock if it goes up), d (one plus the return on the stock if it goes down) and n, the number of time periods. The variables in the Black-Scholes model are S0 (the stock price), X (the exercise price), r c (the continuously compounded risk-free rate), ó (the standard deviation of the continuously compounded return on the stock) and T (the time to expiration). The variables S0 and X are the same in both models. In the binomial model, r is the discrete interest rate per period. In the Black-Scholes model, the interest rate must be expressed in continuously compounded form. The annual discrete interest rate (r) is related to the annual continuously compounded rate (r c) by the formula, r c = ln(1 + r). Then the binomial rate per period is found as (1 + r)T/n - 1. The up and down factors in the binomial model are directly related to ó in the Black-Scholes model by the formula u = T/n ó e – 1 and d = (1/(1+u)) – 1. The time to expiration (T) in the Black-Scholes model is related to the length of each binomial period by the relationship T/n where n is the number of periods. Thus, all of the Black-Scholes variables are either equal to or directly convertible to binomial variables.Chapter6Chapter7Chapter 8Chapter9Chapter 10。

END-OF-CHAPTER QUESTIONS AND PROBLEMSChapter 11. Business risk is the risk associated with a particular line of business, whereas financial risk is the risk associated with stock prices, exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. An example would be that a firm might be in the business of manufacturing furniture. Business risk would reflect the uncertainty of the furniture market, whereas financial risk would reflect the risk associated with the interest rates that would impact their borrowing costs. In addition a business might also be affected by exchange rates. Some of the financial risks can also be business risks. The business risk of a bank, for example, is highly affected by interest rate and exchange rate risk.2. Real assets consist of the tangible assets of the economy; however, for our purposes we also define them to include such intangible assets as management talent, ideas, brand names, etc. They are distinguished from financial assets, which are securities. These securities represent claims on business firms, which own the real assets, or on governments.3. An investor who is risk averse does not like risk and will not take on additional risk without the expectation of higher return. Such an individual will try to get the highest return for a given amount of risk or the lowest risk for a given amount of return. An individual who is risk neutral will simply seek the highest return without regard to risk.4. Financial markets distinguish the qualities of stocks and bonds by their prices. The markets set the price so that the return expected by investors is appropriate for the level of risk. In competitive and efficient markets, the expected return will vary directly with the level of risk. If one wishes to earn a higher return, it is necessary to assume more risk. This is the risk-return trade-off. Investors trade off risk against return.The risk-return trade-off will also hold in derivative markets. The risk-return trade-off is a fundamental result of the nature of competition in the marketplace. Attractive, low-risk investments will have their prices driven up and this will lower the expected returns. High-risk investments will have their prices driven down and this will result in higher expected returns.5. The expected return consists of the risk-free rate and a risk premium. The risk-free rate is the return one expects from investing money today and, thereby, foregoing the consumption that could be obtained. A risk premium is the additional return that one expects to receive by virtue of assuming risk.6. An efficient market is one in which prices reflect the true economic values of the assets trading therein. Inefficient markets, no one can earn returns that are more than commensurate with the level of risk. Efficient markets are characterized by low transaction costs and by the rapid rate at which new information is incorporated into prices.7. Arbitrage is a type of investment transaction that seeks to profit when identical goods are priced differently. Buying an item at one price and immediately selling it at another is a type of arbitrage. Because of the combined activities of arbitrageurs, identical goods, primarily financial assets, cannot sell for different prices for long. This is the law of one price. Arbitrage helps make our markets efficient by assuring that prices are in line with what they are supposed to be. In short, we cannot get something for nothing. A situation involving two identical goods or portfolios that are not priced equivalently would be exploited by arbitrageurs until their prices were equal. The "one price" that an asset must be is called the "theoretical fair value."11. Derivative markets provide a means of adjusting the risk of spot market investments to a more acceptable level and identifying the consensus market beliefs. They make trading easier and less costly and spot markets more efficient. These markets also provide a means of speculating.Chapter 33. European call: We know that its price cannot exceed S0 but must exceed Max(0, S0 - X(1+r)-T). With an infinite time to expiration, the present value of X is zero so the lower bound is S0 and, since the upper bound is S0, the call price must be S0. American call: We know that its price cannot exceed S0 but it must be at least as valuable as a European call. Thus its value must also be S0. Note that if exercised early it would be worth only S0 - X so it will never be exercised early.4. Ordinarily the option with the longer time to expiration would sell for more. If both options were deep out of-the-money, however, they could both sell for essentially nothing. The market would be expecting that both the shorter- and longer-lived options will expire out-of-the-money.5. If both options were deep out-of-the-money, they might have prices of zero. As in the previous question, the two options are expected to expire out-of-the-money.6. The call is underpriced, so buy the call, sell short the stock, and buy risk-free bonds with face value of X. The cash received from the stock is greater than the cost of the call and bonds. Thus, there is a positive cash flow up front. The payoffs from the portfolio at expiration are as follows:If S T < X,- S T (from the stock)X (from the bonds)the total, X - S T, is positive3-2If S T ≥ XS T - X (from the call)- S T (from the stock)X (from the bonds)the total is zero.The portfolio generates a positive cash flow up front and there is no cash outflow at expiration.7. Time value is a measure of the amount of uncertainty in an option. Uncertainty relates to whether the option will expire in- or out-of-the-money. When the option is deep in-the-money, there is little uncertainty about the fact that the option will expire in-the-money. The option will then begin to behave about like the stock. Then the option is deep-out-the-money, there is also little uncertainty since it is likely to finish out-of-the money. When the option is at-the-money there is considerable uncertainty about how it will finish.8. Assuming the stock pays no dividends, there is no reason to exercise a call early (this obviously presumes the call is American). The tendency to believe that exercising an option because the stock can go up no further ignores the fact that an option can generally be sold. Exercising an option throws away any chance that the stock can go up further. If the stock falls, the option holder would be hurt, but if the option holder exercised and became a stock holder, he would also be hurt by a falling stock price. There is simply no reason to give away the time value that arises because of the possibility that the stock can always go further upward. In simple, mathematical terms, exercising captures only the intrinsic value S0 - X. The call can always be sold for at least S0 - X (1 + r) -T.9. The paradox is resolved by recalling that if the option expires out-of-the-money, it does not matter how far out-of-the-money it is. The loss to the option holder is limited to the premium paid. For example, suppose the stock price is $24, the exercise price is $20, and the call price is $6. Higher volatility increases the chance of greater gains to the holder of the call. It also increases the chance of a larger stock price decrease. If, however, the stock price does end up below $20, the investor's loss is the same regardless of whether the stock price at expiration is $19 or $1. If the stock were purchased instead of the call, the loss would obviously be greater if the stock price went to $1 than if it went to $19. For this reason, holders of stocks dislike volatility, while holders of calls like volatility. A similar argument applies to puts.10. The minimum value of an American put is Max(0, X - S0). This is always higher than the lower bound of a European put, X (1 + r) -T - S0, except at expiration when the two are equal.11. When buying a call option, one hopes to exercise it at a later date. Thus, the exercise price will be paid out later. If interest rates are higher, additional interest can be earned on the money that will eventually be paid out as the exercise price.

当你买入一个看跌期权,你的收入为0或正直,这是因为你选择执行与否1.5 你认为某股票价格将要上升,股票当前价格为29美元,三个月期限,执行价格为30美元的看涨期权价格为2.9美元,你共有美金5800元,说明两种投资模式,并简单说明一下两种模式的优缺点有两种方案,即买入200股股票或买入2000份看涨期权,当股票价格上涨航行好,第二种方案将得到更高的回报。

举例来说,当股价上涨为40元,此时收益为2000(40-30)-5800=14200 而第一种反感只有200(40-29)=2200元收益,但当股价下跌,第二种方案将有更大的损失。

当股票价格下跌至25元,第一种方案损失为200(29-25)=800元,第二种方案则带来5800元的损失,这个例子证明了期权有一定的杠杆效率1.26当前黄金市价为每盎司600美元,一个一年期远期合约的执行价格为800美元,一个套利者能以每年10%的利率借入资金,套利者应如何做才能达到套利目的?这里我们假设黄金存储费用为0.同时黄金不会带来任何利息收入这个套利者可以借入资金买入100盎司黄金现货和卖出一个100盎司于一年后交割的期货合约,这就意味着黄金以600美元每盎司买入以800美元每盎司卖出,收益率约为33.3%,远高于10%的接入率,这是一个很好的盈利机会,套利者应尽可能多的买入黄金现货及预期数量相匹配的期货合约1.27 股票当前价格为94美金,同时,三个月期,执行价格为95美元的欧式期权价格为4.7美元,一个投资者认为股价会上涨,但他并不知道应该买入100股股票或买入2000个(20份)期权,这两种投资所需资金均为9400美元,此时你会给出什么建议?股价涨到什么样的水平会使得期权投资盈利更好?投资于看涨期权会带来高收益但是会有高风险,如果股价停止在94美元,买入看涨期权的投资者损失9400美元,儿买入股票的投资者什么也没有损失,如果股价上涨到120美元,买入期权的投资者会得到2000(120-95)-9400=40600美元的收益,而买入股票的投资者会得到100(120-94)-9400=2600元,当股价为s时,这两种投资的收益相等,100(s-94)=2000(s-95),s-100。

5.用P = -S + E/(1+r)T + C 这个表达式来表示卖出期权S 是股价,P 是卖出的执行价,C 是买入期权的价格,E 是执行价格,既然政府债券是以9855日元每10000日元的价格出售,这就是计算执行价格现值的贴现率,而无须用风险利率进行折现。

用平价的替代等式来计算,我们可以得到:P = -2,400 + 500 x .9855 +2,000 = 92.75 yen6.a.根据卖出-买入平价,Gekko 投资组合中买入期权的价格: C = S - E/(1+r)T + P = $215 - $50 ×0 .9901 + $25 = $190.495b. Gekko 的投资组合的总价值:10 x $990.10 + 200 x $190.495 = $48,000,而300股股票的总价值:$64,500。

第一章1.4 仔细解释卖出一个看涨期权与买入一个看跌期权的差别卖出一个看涨期权涉及到给他人一个买入你某项财产的权利,它将给你带来的收益为-max (st-k,0)=min(k-st,0)买入一个看跌期权涉及到从他人手里买入一个期权,带来的收益为max(k-st,0)他们都有一个可能性的收入k-st,当你卖出看涨期权,收入为负值或0,这是因为交易对手可以选择是否执行。

当你买入一个看跌期权,你的收入为0或正直,这是因为你选择执行与否1.5 你认为某股票价格将要上升,股票当前价格为29美元,三个月期限,执行价格为30美元的看涨期权价格为2.9美元,你共有美金5800元,说明两种投资模式,并简单说明一下两种模式的优缺点有两种方案,即买入200股股票或买入2000份看涨期权,当股票价格上涨航行好,第二种方案将得到更高的回报。

举例来说,当股价上涨为40元,此时收益为2000(40-30)-5800=14200 而第一种反感只有200(40-29)=2200元收益,但当股价下跌,第二种方案将有更大的损失。

当股票价格下跌至25元,第一种方案损失为200(29-25)=800元,第二种方案则带来5800元的损失,这个例子证明了期权有一定的杠杆效率1.26当前黄金市价为每盎司600美元,一个一年期远期合约的执行价格为800美元,一个套利者能以每年10%的利率借入资金,套利者应如何做才能达到套利目的?这里我们假设黄金存储费用为0.同时黄金不会带来任何利息收入这个套利者可以借入资金买入100盎司黄金现货和卖出一个100盎司于一年后交割的期货合约,这就意味着黄金以600美元每盎司买入以800美元每盎司卖出,收益率约为33.3%,远高于10%的接入率,这是一个很好的盈利机会,套利者应尽可能多的买入黄金现货及预期数量相匹配的期货合约1.27 股票当前价格为94美金,同时,三个月期,执行价格为95美元的欧式期权价格为4.7美元,一个投资者认为股价会上涨,但他并不知道应该买入100股股票或买入2000个(20份)期权,这两种投资所需资金均为9400美元,此时你会给出什么建议?股价涨到什么样的水平会使得期权投资盈利更好?投资于看涨期权会带来高收益但是会有高风险,如果股价停止在94美元,买入看涨期权的投资者损失9400美元,儿买入股票的投资者什么也没有损失,如果股价上涨到120美元,买入期权的投资者会得到2000(120-95)-9400=40600美元的收益,而买入股票的投资者会得到100(120-94)-9400=2600元,当股价为s时,这两种投资的收益相等,100(s-94)=2000(s-95),s-100。

所以当股价高于一百时,期权盈利更好2.9 设计一个新的期货合约时需要考虑那些方面?合约规模,交割安排,交割月份2.19在期货市场,投机就是纯粹的赌博,为了公众利益,不应该让投机者在交易场所交易齐国,评价这种说法投机者是期货市场重要的参与者,因为他们增加了期货市场的流动性,和投机一样合约对于对冲来说必须是有用的。

因为总的来说,和投机这类似,当合约对风险对冲者有利益时才会得到监管部门的通过2.25 现在是2008年7月,一个矿物公司刚刚发现了一个小型金矿,决定用六个月时间建矿,黄金将在今后的一年内连续被开发出,nyce有关于黄金期货的合约,从2008.8-2009.12月,每两个月有一个期货交割月,每一个合约规模为100盎司黄金,讨论矿业公司将采用何种期货产品来对冲风险。

矿业公司应该连续按月估计出黄金的产量,今儿通过卖出与黄金产量想等的期货合约来锁定近期黄金价格,比如2009年1、2月共产出黄金三千盎司,卖出30长期货合约可以锁定其价格2.26 一家公司进入一个期货短头寸,合约中,公司以每蒲式耳250美分卖出5000蒲式耳小麦,初始保证金为3000美金,维持保证金为2000美金,价格如何变化会导致保证金的催收?什么情况下,公司可以从保证金账户中提取1500美金?在期货市场损失1000美金,即小麦期货没蒲式耳上涨二十美分时,会导致保证金的催收,当小麦期货价格每蒲式耳下降30美分时,可以从保证金账户中提取1500美金。

3.7:一家公司持有价值为2000万美元,β值为1.2的股票组合,该公司想要采用S&P500期货来对冲风险,股指期货的当前价格为1080,每一个期货是关于250美元倍的股指,什么样的对冲可以使风险极小化?公司怎么做才可以将组合的beta值降为0.6?N*=1.2*20000000/(250*1080)=88.89所以进入89份的期货短头寸。

N`=(1.2-0.6)*20000000/(250*1080)=44.4所以公司只需持有44份期货短头寸就可以将beta值降为0.6.3.17:一个玉米农场的农场主有以下观点,我们不能采用期货来对冲我面临的风险,我的真正风险并不是玉米价格的变化,而是气候原因使我颗粒无收。

讨论这一观点,这个农民是否应该对玉米的预期产量有所估计然后采用对冲策略来锁定预期价格。

由于气候原因使得玉米颗粒无收,但是气候的影响对于所有的玉米农场主来说都是一样的。

因此玉米的总产量下降,导致玉米价格会有个相当大的提高。

相对于实际的玉米产量,这个农民很有可能会过度对冲了。

这样一来农民在期货市场上的损失会增加自己整体的损失。

因此这个农场主的观点是正确的,也即是这个农民不应该对玉米预期产量有所估计然后采用对冲策略来锁定预期价格。

3.23下表关于某商品的即期以及期货每月价格变化的数据,利用这些数据来计算使方差最小化即期价格变化期货价格变化即期价格变化期货价格变化δF估计值为δS估计值为ρ估计值为最小方差为:3.25一个基金经理持有一价值为5000万美元,Beta等于0.87的股票组合。

该经理担心在今后两个月内市场的表现,因此打算采用3个月期的关于S&P500的期货合约来对冲其风险。

股指的当前水平为1250,期货合约是关于250倍的指数,无风险利率未每年6%,股息收益率为每年3%,当前3个月期的期货价格为1259.(a)基金经理应采用什么样的头寸来对冲今后两个月内的市场风险?(b)当股指在两个月后分别为1000、1100、1200、1300和1400时,你的策略对于基金经理的收益影响会如何?假定一个月期的期货价格比现在的股指水平高0.25%。

(a)...N*=0.87*50000000/(1259*250)=138.2 ...进入期货合约的短头寸,数量为138份。

(b)当股指为1000时:期货市场上投资效果=250×(1259-1000×1.0025)×138=8849250现货市场上的效果:由于股指在这两个月的亏损率=3%×2/12-{(1000-1250)/1250}-6%×2/12=0.5%-21%=-20.5%而基金经理所持有的股票组合的beta值为0.87,所以该股票组合的亏损率为20.5%×0.87=17.835%,减去其中的无风险利率1%,那么现货市场的实际亏损率为16.835%亏损价值=16.835%×5000×10000=8417500则总效果=8849250-8417500=431750美元其他情形雷同。

4.8从久期你能知道债券组合对于利率有什么样的敏感度?久期有什么局限性?久期提供的信息是一个小的收益率曲线的平行移动对债券投资组合价值的影响。

投资组合价值减少的百分比等于久期乘以相对应的平行移动的利率的变化。

久期的局限性是只能在利率的平行移动中适用。

4.21解释为什么一个FRA 等价于以浮动利率交换固定利率?一个FRA 是约定在将来某一段时间交易的一方将以某一个特定的利率RK 借入或者借出一个固定的资金L 的协议。

不管市场上的利率如何变化,订立FRA 协议者就有权在约定的时间以利率为RK 这一固定利率借入或者借出资金。

相当于以浮动利率交换固定利率。

4.25:6个月、12个月、18个月和24个月期限的零息利率分别为4%、4.5%、4.75%和5%,这里利率为每半年复利一次。

期货价格、即期价格、便利收益与持有成本的关系式是什么?便利收益率反映了市场对未来商品可获得性的预期也可以说是因持有商品而带来的好处。

持有成本包括储存成本加上资产的融资利息,再减去资产的收益。

期货价格:F0. 即期价格:S0.便利收益:y持有成本:c关系式为T是期货合约到期时间5.15 白银的限价为每盎司9美元,每年储存费用为每盎司0.24美元,储存费要每季度预先支付一次。

假定所有期限的利率均为每年10%(连续复利),计算9个月后到期的期货价格。
