A stock price is currently $50. Over each of the next two 2-month periods it is expected to go up by 6% or down by 4%. The risk-free interest rate is 5% per annum with continuous compounding.

(a) What is the value of a 6-month European call option with a strike price of $52 using a three-step binomial tree?

(b) Draw the tree mark the value of the option on each nod of the tree.

A stock price is currently $50. Over each of the next two 3-month periods, it is expected to go up by 6% or down by 5%. The risk-free rate is 5% per annum with continuous compounding. What is the value of a six-month European call option with a strike price of $51?

Consider a 3-month put option on a stock. The current stock price is $100; and the stock pays no dividend during the next 3-month. You estimate that the stock volatility is 20% per annum. The option has a strike price of $105. Risk free interest rate is 5%. You use a 2-step CRR binomial model to price this option.

a) What is the risk neutral probability of stock price moving up in any one time step?

b) Suppose the option is a European put option. Use the binomial tree below to compute the option price.

c) Suppose the option is an American put option. Use the binomial tree below to compute the option price.

d) Suppose the option is an Asian option, where the strike price is average stock price over life of the option. Use the binomial tree below to compute the option price.

Please show calculate process.

A stock index currently stands at 300 and has a volatility of 20% per year. The continuously compounded risk-free interest rate is 3% per year and the dividend yield on the index is 8%. Use a TWO-STEP binomial tree to value a six-month American call option on the index with a strike price of 295. Show all calculations.
