S o = Current stock price N(d) = probability that a random draw from a normal dist. will be less than d. 5. Black-Scholes Option Valuation

31. 31 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Black-Scholes Model with Dividends The call option formula applies to stocks that pay dividends. One approach is to replace the stock price with a dividend adjusted stock price. Replace S 0 with S 0 - PV (Dividends)

32. 32 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Put Value Using Black-Scholes P = Xe -rT [1-N(d 2 )] - S 0 [1-N(d 1 )] Using the sample call data S = 100 r =.10 X = 95 g =.5 T =.25 95e -10x.25 (1-.5714)-100(1-.6664) = 6.35

33. 33 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Determinants of Call Option Values

34. 34 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Hedging: Hedge ratio or delta The number of stocks required to hedge against the price risk of holding one option. Call = N (d 1 ) Put = N (d 1 ) - 1 Option Elasticity Percentage change in the option’s value given a 1% change in the value of the underlying stock. Using the Black-Scholes Formula

36. 36 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Buying Puts - results in downside protection with unlimited upside potential. Limitations Tracking errors if indexes are used for the puts. Maturity of puts may be too short. Hedge ratios or deltas change as stock values change. Portfolio Insurance

37. 37 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Solution Synthetic Put Selling a proportion of shares equal to the put option’s delta and placing the proceeds in risk-free T-bills (page 763-764) Additional problem Delta changes with stock prices Solution: delta hedging But increase market volatilities October 19, 1987

38. 38 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Hedge Ratios Change with Stock Prices

39. 39 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Hedging On Mispriced Options Option value is positively related to volatility: If an investor believes that the volatility that is implied in an option’s price is too low, a profitable trade is possible. Profit must be hedged against a decline in the value of the stock. Performance depends on option price relative to the implied volatility.

40. 40 Ch20&21 – MBA 566 Hedging and Delta The appropriate hedge will depend on the delta. Recall the delta is the change in the value of the option relative to the change in the value of the stock. Example (page 767): Implied volatility = 33% Investor believes volatility should = 35% Option maturity = 60 days Put price P = $4.495 Exercise price and stock price = $90 Risk-free rate r = 4% Delta = -.453
