Question 24

Multiple Choice

Use the following data for a two-period binomial model to answer the questions that follow.
- The stock's price S is $100.After three months,it either goes up and gets multiplied by the factor U =1.13847256,or it goes down and gets multiplied by the factor D = 0.88664332.
- Options mature after T = 0.5 year and have a strike price of K = $105.
- The continuously compounded risk-free interest rate r is 5 percent per year.
- Today's European call price is c and the put price is p.Call prices after one period are denoted by cU in the up node and cD in the down node.Call prices after two periods are denoted by cUD in the "up,and then down node" and so on.Put prices are similarly defined.
-The stock price tree (in dollars) is given by:


A) S = 100;US = 113.8473 and DS = 88.6643;U 2S = 135.3238,UDS = 100,and D2S = 74.2672
B) S = 100;US = 113.8473 and DS = 88.6643;U 2S = 129.6120,UDS = 100.9419,and D2S = 78.6136
C) S F= 100;US = 113.8473 and DS = 88.6643;U 2S = 123.9862,UDS =101.5113,and D2S =83.1104
D) S = 100;US = 113.8473 and DS = 88.6643;U 2S =130.2617,UDS=101.4479,and D2S = 79.0077
