Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine put option price from the following data:
Current stock price Rs. 1260. strike price Rs. 1280,
Time to expiration - 3 months, Volatility = 30%,
Annual risk-free rate = 12%
Use Black-Scholes formulaAssumptions : This is a European Option. Volatility given is an annual rate. Annual risk-free rate is a continuously compounded rate.
Inputs :
Current Stock Price : S = Rs. 1260
Strike Price : X = Rs. 1280
Time to expiry : T = 3 months = 3 / 12 = 0.25 (in years)
Volatility : \large \sigma = 30% or 0.30
Annual risk free rate : r = 0.12
We will first use Black-Scholes formula to find the value of the Call option, and then use the Put-Call Parity equation to find the Value of the Put option.
1) Black-Scholes formula :
Value of Call option : C = [ S x N(d1) ] - [ X * e(-r x t) x N(d2) ]
(Here X * e(-r x t) denotes the Present Value of the Strike Price)
d1 = [ LN (S / X) + (r + \large \sigma2 / 2) x t ] / \large \sigma x \small \sqrt{t}
(LN means Natural Log) (We can calculate this using the "ln" function in Excel) (In excel type the formula : "=ln(1260/1280)"
d1 = [LN (1260 / 1280) + (0.12 + 0.302 / 2) x 0.25] / 0.30 x √0.25
= [-0.01575 + 0.04125] / 0.15
= 0.17
d2 = d1 - \large \sigma x \small \sqrt{t}
= 0.17 - (0.30 x √0.25)
= 0.17 - 0.15
= 0.02
N(d) denotes the area under the standard normal distribution curve. We can get these values either from a Normal distribution table or by using the formula NORMSDIST in Excel : =NORMSDIST(value). I have calculated this using the excel formula.
N(d1) = N(0.17) = 0.5675
N(d2) = N(0.02) = 0.5080
Present Value of Strike Price = X * e(-r x t) = 1280 x e-0.12 x 0.25 = 1280 x e-0.03
(using the formula : "=EXP(-0.03)" in Excel we get e-0.03 = 0.970446)
= 1280 x 0.970446
= 1242.17
Value of Call option : C = [ 1260 x 0.5675 ] - [ 1242.17 x 0.5080 ]
= 715.05 - 631.02
= Rs. 84.03
2) Now, as per Put-Call Parity equation :
Value of Put = Value of Call + Present Value of Strike Price - Current Stock Price
P = C + PV (X) - S
= 84.03 + 1242.17 - 1260
= Rs. 66.20
