Economic Benefits Provided by Options
Derivative securities are instruments that derive their value from the value of other
assets.Derivatives include options, futures, and
swaps.
Options and other derivative securities have several important economic functions:
– Help bring about more efficient allocation of risk – Save transactions costs…sometimes it is cheaper to trade a
derivative than its underlying asset.– Permit investments strategies that would not otherwise be possible

Options Basics
Options: contracts that grant the buyer the right to buy or sell stock at a fixed price.
Options provide real economic benefit to society.
Put-call parity establishes a link between market prices of calls, puts, shares, and
bonds.
Factors that affect option prices: underlying price, time to maturity, strike price,
interest rate and volatility.

Options Vocabulary
Long position
• The buyer of an option has a long position, and has the ability to exercise the option.
Short position

• For out of the money options: the intrinsic value is zero
Time value• The difference between the option’s

Show the value of an option, or the value at expiration
Y-axis plots exercise value or “intrinsic value.”
X-axis plots price of underlying asset.
Use payoff diagrams for:
Long and short positions
Gross and net positions (the net positions subtract the option

Portfolios of Options
Look at payoff diagrams for combinations of options rather than just one.
Diagrams show the range of potential strategies made possible by options.
Some positions, in combination with other positions, can be a form of portfolio insurance.

Covered Call Strategy
Writing covered calls –common trading strategy that mixes stock and call options An investor who owns a share of stock
sells a call option on that stock. The investor receives the option
premium immediately. The trade-off is that if the stock price
rises the holder of the call option will exercise
the right to purchase it at the strike pricethe investor will lose the opportunity to
benefit from the appreciation in the stock.

Put-Call Parity
Following conditions must be met:1. The call and put options must be on the
same underlying stock.2. The call and put options must have the
same exercise price.3. The call and put options must share the
same expiration date.4. The underlying stock must not pay a
dividend during the life of the options.5. The call and put options must be European
options.6. The bond must be a risk-free, zero-coupon
bond with a face value equal to the strike price of the options and with a maturity date identical to the options’ expiration date.

Factors Affecting Option Values
Price of underlying
asset
• Asset price and call price are positively related.
• Asset price and put price are negatively related.
Time to expiration
• More time usually makes options more valuable.
Strike price
• Higher X means higher put price; lower X means higher call price.
Interest rate
• Calls: higher “r” means higher call value
• Puts: higher “r” reduces put value
![Page 29: Professor XXXXX Course Name / # © 2007 Thomson South-Western Chapter 18 Options Basics](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e685503460f94b649b8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Factors Affecting Option Values
Holding other factors constant, call and put option prices increase as the time to expiration increases.
Call prices decrease and put prices increase when the difference between the underlying stock price and the exercise price (S − X) decreases.
Call and put option prices increase as the volatility of the underlying stock increases.

Calculating Option Prices
The binomial options model recognizes that investors can combine options (either calls or puts) with shares of the underlying asset to construct a portfolio with a risk-free payoff.

Risk-Neutral Method
If a combination of stock and options is risk-free, it must sell for the same price as a risk-free bond.
If an asset promises a risk-free payoff, risk-averse and risk-neutral investors agree on how it should be valued.
Whether investors are risk averse or risk neutral, the binomial model’s calculations are the same.
We can assume investors are risk neutral, which gives us a new way to value options.
