In this paper, we demonstrate how to collect the data and compute the actual value of Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model call option prices for Coca-Cola and PepsiCo.The data for the current stock price and option price are taken from Yahoo Finance and the daily returns variance is computed from daily prices.The time to maturity is computed as the number of days remaining for the stock option.The risk-free rate is obtained from the U.S. Treasury website.

There are two common methods for pricing European call options on a stock with known dividends. The market practice is to use the Black–Scholes formula with the stock price reduced by the present value of the dividends. An alternative approach is to increase the strike price with the dividends compounded to expiry at the risk-free rate. These methods correspond to different stock price models and thus in general give different option prices. In the present paper we generalize these methods to time- and level-dependent volatilities and to arbitrary contract functions. We show, for convex contract functions and under very general conditions on the volatility, that the method which is market practice gives the lower option price. For call options and some other common contracts we find bounds for the difference between the two prices in the case of constant volatility.

The establishment of the fractional Black–Scholes option pricing model is under a major condition with the normal distribution for the state price density (SPD) function. However, the fractional Brownian motion is deemed to not be martingale with a long memory effect of the underlying asset, so that the estimation of the state price density (SPD) function is far from simple. This paper proposes a convenient approach to get the fractional option pricing model by changing variables. Further, the option price is transformed as the integral function of the cumulative density function (CDF), so it is not necessary to estimate the distribution function individually by complex approaches. Finally, it encourages to estimate the fractional option pricing model by the way of nonparametric regression and makes empirical analysis with the traded 50 ETF option data in Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE).

In this study, the option pricing performance of the adjusted Black-Scholes model proposed by Corrado and Su (1996) and corrected by Brown and Robinson (2002), is investigated and compared with original Black Scholes pricing model for the Turkish derivatives market. The data consist of the European options written on BIST 30 index extends from January 02, 2015 to April 24, 2015 for given exercise prices with maturity April 30, 2015. In this period, the strike prices are ranging from 86 to 124. To compare the models, the implied parameters are derived by minimizing the sum of squared deviations between the observed and theoretical option prices. The implied distribution of BIST 30 index does not significantly deviate from normal distribution. In addition, pricing performance of Black Scholes model performs better in most of the time.

Abstract This paper proposes a fuzzy jump-diffusion option pricing model based on Merton's normal jump-diffusion price dynamics. The logarithm of the stock price is assumed to be a Gaussian fuzzy number and the diffusion and jump parameters of the Merton model are assumed to be triangular fuzzy numbers to model the impreciseness which occur due to the variation in financial markets. Using these assumptions, a fuzzy formula for a European call option has been proposed. Given any value of the option price, its belief degree is obtained by using the bisection search algorithm. The fuzzy call option prices have been defuzzified and it has been found that the fuzzy jump-diffusion model outperforms Wu's fuzzy Black- Scholes model. This is one of the first studies where the impreciseness of the stock price and input parameters has been modelled taking into account occasional large jumps in stock price trajectory and thereby proposing a fuzzy option pricing model.

To estimate the parameters of the model of option pricing based on the model of rough fractional stochastic volatility (RFSV), we have carried out the empirical analysis during our study on the pricing of SSE 50ETF options in China. First, we have estimated the parameters of option pricing model by adopting the Monte Carlo simulation. Subsequently, we have empirically examined the pricing performance of the RFSV model by adopting the SSE 50ETF option price from January 2019 to December 2020. Our research findings indicate that by leveraging the RFSV model, we are able to attain a more accurate and stable level of option pricing than the conventional Black–Scholes (B-S) model on constant volatility. The errors of option pricing incurred by the B-S model proved to be larger and exhibited higher volatility, revealing the significant impact imposed by stochastic volatility on option pricing.

In this paper we estimate European put option price by using awell-established option pricing model, namely, the Constant Elasticity of Variance (CEV) model for the elasticity parameter β< 2 and then compare it with the benchmark Black-Scholes (BS) model. We calculate the Greeks under the CEV model for β=0,1 and 1.95 and compare them with that of the B-S one. Finally, we investigate the put price and Greeks values for at-the-money (ATM), in-the-money (ITM) and out-of-the-money (OTM) situations. Dhaka Univ. J. Sci. 67(2): 105-110, 2019 (July)

The objective of this paper is to analyze the gharar issue of warrant by presenting the empirical evidence of warrant mispricing in Malaysia's market (moneyness and mispricing) and its determinant. The Black Scholes Option Pricing Model (BSOPM) will be used to detect mispricing in a warrant's contract. In addition panel regression will be performed to analyze the determinant if said warrant is mispriced. The result shows that in majority, mispricing happens in warrant, either by Out the Money, or In the Money. Panel regression analysis finds that Stock price, klibor, and maturity are positive and are significant variables to the mispricing of a warrant. Finally, with the use of a warrant mispricing model, this research concludes that there is gharar issue in warrant contract.
