Finance Question Options Fair Value
Hey guys, I have to answer this question for an interview and I'm really stuck, I don't even know where to start. Can anyone help me out?
Suppose you know the following information about a market:
- future is at 66
- 70 strike straddle is trading at 27
- 50-60 put spread is at 2.5
- 50-60-70 put fly is at 2
- volatility is constant across strikes
i. What is the fair value for the 80 call, 60 straddle, and 40 put?
ii. Assume we had a volatility smile along the curve. How would this make your markets different?
id go with b
EZ... SET UP EQUATIONS FOR EACH OF THOSE PRICES USE PUT CALL PARITY AND YOU HAVE A BUNCH OF SIMULTANEOUS EQUATIONS U CAN SOLVE...ASSUME INTEREST RATE IS 0 SO C-P = F -K
rofl, did you apply to transmarket group?
What is the answer for this question?
Could anyone spare a little guidance on problems such as this for the 80 and 40 prices?
It seems that we would need more information to get the outside prices (interest/time), by working backwards from the Black Scholes and obtaining the implied vol. Or possibly something like calculating IV from risk reversal and fly prices. Any help would be appreciated
