Chapter 5: Option Pricing Models: The Black-Scholes-Merton Model Good theories, like Black-Scholes-Merton, provide a theoretical laboratory in which you can explore the likely effect of possible causes. They give you a common language with which to quantify and communicate your feelings about value.

Origins of the Black-Scholes-Merton Formula Brownian motion and the works of Einstein, Bachelier, Wiener, Itô Black, Scholes, Merton and the 1997 Nobel Prize Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning.

Black-Scholes-Merton Model as the Limit of the Binomial Model Recall the binomial model and the notion of a dynamic risk-free hedge in which no arbitrage opportunities are available. Consider the DCRB June 125 call option. Figure 5.1 shows the model price for an increasing number of time steps. The binomial model is in discrete time. As you decrease the length of each time step, it converges to continuous time. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Assumptions of the Model Stock prices behave randomly and evolve according to a lognormal distribution. See Figure 5.2a, 5.2b and 5.3 for a look at the notion of randomness. A lognormal distribution means that the log (continuously compounded) return is normally distributed. See Figure 5.4. The risk-free rate and volatility of the log return on the stock are constant throughout the option’s life There are no taxes or transaction costs The stock pays no dividends The options are European Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning.

A Nobel Formula The Black-Scholes-Merton model gives the correct formula for a European call under these assumptions. The model is derived with complex mathematics but is easily understandable. The formula is Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

A Nobel Formula (continued) where N(d1), N(d2) = cumulative normal probability s = annualized standard deviation (volatility) of the continuously compounded return on the stock rc = continuously compounded risk-free rate Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning.

A Nobel Formula (continued) A Numerical Example Price the DCRB June 125 call S0 = 125.94, X = 125, rc = ln(1.0456) = 0.0446, T = 0.0959, s = 0.83. See Table 5.2 for calculations. C = $13.21.

A Nobel Formula (continued) Characteristics of the Black-Scholes- Merton Formula Interpretation of the Formula The concept of risk neutrality, risk neutral probability, and its role in pricing options The option price is the discounted expected payoff, Max(0,ST - X). We need the expected value of ST - X for those cases where ST > X. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

A Nobel Formula (continued) Characteristics of the Black-Scholes- Merton Formula (continued) Interpretation of the Formula (continued) The first term of the formula is the expected value of the stock price given that it exceeds the exercise price times the probability of the stock price exceeding the exercise price, discounted to the present. The second term is the expected value of the payment of the exercise price at expiration. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning.

A Nobel Formula (continued) Characteristics of the Black-Scholes- Merton Formula (continued) The Black-Scholes-Merton Formula and the Lower Bound of a European Call Recall from Chapter 3 that the lower bound would be The Black-Scholes-Merton formula always exceeds this value as seen by letting S0 be very high and then let it approach zero.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model The Stock Price Let S ­, then C ­. See Figure 5.6. This effect is called the delta, which is given by N(d1). Measures the change in call price over the change in stock price for a very small change in the stock price. Delta ranges from zero to one. See Figure 5.7 for how delta varies with the stock price. The delta changes throughout the option’s life. See Figure 5.8. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Stock Price (continued) Delta hedging/delta neutral: holding shares of stock and selling calls to maintain a risk-free position The number of shares held per option sold is the delta, N(d1). As the stock goes up/down by $1, the option goes up/down by N(d1). By holding N(d1) shares per call, the effects offset. The position must be adjusted as the delta changes.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Stock Price (continued) Delta hedging works only for small stock price changes. For larger changes, the delta does not accurately reflect the option price change. This risk is captured by the gamma: For our DCRB June 125 call, Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Stock Price (continued) If the stock goes from 125.94 to 130, the delta is predicted to change from 0.569 to 0.569 + (130 - 125.94)(0.0123) = 0.6189. The actual delta at a price of 130 is 0.6171. So gamma captures most of the change in delta. The larger is the gamma, the more sensitive is the option price to large stock price moves, the more sensitive is the delta, and the faster the delta changes. This makes it more difficult to hedge. See Figure 5.9 for gamma vs. the stock price See Figure 5.10 for gamma vs. time Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The following option prices were observed for calls and puts on a stock for the trading day of July 6 of a particular year. Use this information in problems 7 through 14. The stock was priced at 165.13. The expirations were July 17, August 21, and October 16. The continuously compounded risk-free rates associated with the three expirations were 0.0503, 0.0535, and 0.0571, respectively. Unless otherwise indicated, assume that the options are European.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) 11) Let the standard deviation of the continuously compounded return on the stock is 21 percent. Ignore dividends. Respond to the following: a. What is the theoretical fair value of the October 165 call? b. Based on your answer in part a, recommend a riskless strategy. c. If the stock price decreases by $1, how will the option position offset the loss on the stock? Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) 22. A stock is selling for $100 with a volatility of 40 percent. Consider a call option on the stock with an exercise price of 100 and an expiration of one year. The risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. Let the call be selling for its Black- Scholes-Merton value. You construct a delta-hedged position involving the sale of 10,000 calls and the purchase of an appropriate number of shares. You can buy and sell shares and calls only in whole numbers. At the end of the next day, the stock is at $99. You then adjust your position accordingly to maintain the delta hedge. The following day the stock closes at $102. a. Compare the amount of money you end up with to the amount you would have had if you had invested the money in a risk-free bond. Explain why the target was or was not achieved.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Exercise Price Let X ­, then C ¯ The exercise price does not change in most options so this is useful only for comparing options differing only by a small change in the exercise price.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Risk-Free Rate Take ln(1 + discrete risk-free rate from Chapter 3). Let rc ­, then C ­. See Figure 5.11. The effect is called rho In our example, If the risk-free rate goes to 0.12, the rho estimates that the call price will go to (0.12 - 0.0446)(5.57) = 0.42. The actual change is 0.43. See Figure 5.12 for rho vs. stock price. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Volatility or Standard Deviation The most critical variable in the Black-Scholes- Merton model because the option price is very sensitive to the volatility and it is the only unobservable variable. Let s ­, then C ­. See Figure 5.13. This effect is known as vega. In our problem this is Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Volatility or Standard Deviation (continued) Thus if volatility changes by 0.01, the call price is estimated to change by 15.32(0.01) = 0.15 If we increase volatility to, say, 0.95, the estimated change would be 15.32(0.12) = 1.84. The actual call price at a volatility of 0.95 would be 15.39, which is an increase of 1.84. The accuracy is due to the near linearity of the call price with respect to the volatility. See Figure 5.14 for the vega vs. the stock price. Notice how it is highest when the call is approximately at-the-money.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Time to Expiration Calculated as (days to expiration)/365 Let T ­, then C ­. See Figure 5.15. This effect is known as theta: In our problem, this would be Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Variables in the Black-Scholes-Merton Model (continued) The Time to Expiration (continued) If one week elapsed, the call price would be expected to change to (0.0959 - 0.0767)(-68.91) = -1.32. The actual call price with T = 0.0767 is 12.16, a decrease of 1.39.

Black-Scholes-Merton Model When the Stock Pays Dividends Known Discrete Dividends Assume a single dividend of Dt where the ex-dividend date is time t during the option’s life. Subtract present value of dividends from stock price. Adjusted stock price, S¢, is inserted into the B-S-M model: See Table 5.3 for example. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Black-Scholes-Merton Model When the Stock Pays Dividends (continued) Continuous Dividend Yield Assume the stock pays dividends continuously at the rate of . Subtract present value of dividends from stock price. Adjusted stock price, S¢, is inserted into the B-S model. See Table 5.4 for example. This approach could also be used if the underlying is a foreign currency, where the yield is replaced by the continuously compounded foreign risk-free rate.

Black-Scholes-Merton Model and Some Insights into American Call Options Table 5.5 illustrates how the early exercise decision is made when the dividend is the only one during the option’s life The value obtained upon exercise is compared to the ex-dividend value of the option. High dividends and low time value lead to early exercise. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Estimating the Volatility Historical Volatility This is the volatility over a recent time period. Collect daily, weekly, or monthly returns on the stock. Convert each return to its continuously compounded equivalent by taking ln(1 + return). Calculate variance. Annualize by multiplying by 250 (daily returns), 52 (weekly returns) or 12 (monthly returns). Take square root. See Table 5.6 for example with DCRB.

May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.

Estimating the Volatility (continued) Implied Volatility This is the volatility implied when the market price of the option is set to the model price. Figure 5.17 illustrates the procedure. Substitute estimates of the volatility into the B- S-M formula until the market price converges to the model price. See Table 5.7 for the implied volatilities of the DCRB calls.

Estimating the Volatility (continued) Implied Volatility (continued) For our DCRB June 125 call, this gives This is quite close; the actual implied volatility is 0.83. Appendix 5.A shows a method to produce faster convergence. Chance/Brooks An Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 9th ed. © 2010 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Estimating the Volatility (continued) Implied Volatility (continued) Interpreting the Implied Volatility The relationship between the implied volatility and the time to expiration is called the term structure of implied volatility. See Figure 5.18. The relationship between the implied volatility and the exercise price is called the volatility smile or volatility skew. Figure 5.19. These volatilities are actually supposed to be the same. This effect is puzzling and has not been adequately explained. The CBOE has constructed indices of implied volatility of one-month at-the-money options based on the S&P 100 (VIX) and Nasdaq (VXN). See Figure 5.20.

Estimating the Volatility (continued) 1) Suppose you subscribe to a service that gives you estimates of the theoretically correct volatilities of stocks. You note that the implied volatility of a particular option is substantially higher than the theoretical volatility. What action should you take? Why?

Put Option Pricing Models Restate put-call parity with continuous discounting Substituting the B-S-M formula for C above gives the B-S-M put option pricing model N(d1) and N(d2) are the same as in the call model.

Put Option Pricing Models (continued) Note calculation of put price: The Black-Scholes-Merton price does not reflect early exercise and, thus, is extremely biased here since the American option price in the market is 11.50. A binomial model would be necessary to get an accurate price. With n = 100, we obtained 12.11. See Table 5.8 for the effect of the input variables on the Black- Scholes-Merton put formula.
