5. Consider a call option and let Γ denote its second derivative with respect to S. Find I(S) dS 0
5. Consider a genetic test for susceptibility to a certain environmentally induced illness. Let S denote the event that an individual is susceptible, and let N denote the event that an individual is not. Let P denote the event that the test is positive. Suppose that Pr(S) = 0.3, that Pr(P|S) = 0.9, and that Pr(P)N) = 0.1. (1) Find Pr(P). (ii) Find Pr( P S). (iii) Find Pr(S|P).

Let S = {S(t), t > 0) denote the price of a continuous dividend-paying stock. The prepaid forward price for delivery of one share of this stock in one year equals $98.02. Assume that the Black-Scholes model is used for the evolution of the stock price. Consider a European call and European put option both with exercise date in one year. They have the same strike price and the same Black-Scholes price equal to $9.37. What is the implied volatility...
ds/de = v(t). Now time to implement some calculus! Let s(t) be the position of your car at time t. Since we can find distance traveled by finding a position function that satisfies this derivative relationship, then use it to compute As over the At = 4 hr time interval. I 4. 5) Find a position function s(t) that satisfies ds/dt = 8t and use it to find the distance traveled.
Consider the gamma of a European call option with 1-year maturity on the S&P500 index. The option has a strike of 2300, the dividend yield on the S&P500 index is 2%, and its volatility is 15%. Further assume the riskless interest rate is 5%. (a) Plot the gamma of the option as a function of the underlying asset price. (b) For what values of the S&P500 index is the option’s gamma the highest when the call approaches expiration?
3. (a) Given I = S, V10(2x + y) ds where c is the straight line segment y = 3x from (0,0) to (2,6) as shown below. 2 (1 mark) 0) With x = t, express y in terms of the parametert for the straight line. () With ds = dt, express ds in terms of parameter t and its derivative. (4 marks) C) Use the above (i) and (ii) results to find the value of I. (5 marks) (b)...
Problem 1: A call option of strike K > 0 is a financial
contract that payoffs S>K dollars if S > K and 0 dollars
otherwise where S is the stock price of the company at
maturity.
I shall use ![.] for the indicator function, and φ(z)-(2π)-1/2e-0.5? Problem 1: A call option of strike K > 0 is a financial contract that payoffs S -K dollars if S> K and 0 dollars otherwise where S is the stock price of...
My code for calculating the
first derivative is the second image
Compute second derivative O solutions submitted (max: 10) You are provided with a set of data for the position of an object over time. The data is sampled at evenly spaced time intervals. Your task is to find a second order accurate approximation for the acceleration at each point in time. Write a Matlab function that takes in a vector of positions x, the time interval between each sampled...
Consider a call option and a put option written on the stock XYZ. Both call and put have a strike of $50. Stock XYZ has the following quotations in the market: 7. Bid Ask $49.90 $50.20 the money Then the call option is the money; the put option is A. in; in B. in; out C. out; in D. out; out E. at; at 8 You need to invest in two assets: a risk-free asset with a return of 5%...
