An asymptotic formula for pricing an American exchange option
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, the American exchange option (AEO) valuation problem is modelled as a free boundary problem. The critical stock price for an AEO is satisfied an integral equation implicitly. When the remaining time is large enough, an asymptotic formula is provided for pricing an AEO. The numerical results reveal that our asymptotic pricing formula is robust and accurate for the long-term AEO. Keywords—integral equation, asymptotic solution, free boundary problem, American exchange option

American Option Pricing of Future Contracts in an Effort to Investigate Trading Strategies; Evidence from North Sea Oil Exchange
In this paper, Black Scholes’s pricing model was developed to study American option on future contracts of Brent oil. The practical tests of the model show that market priced option contracts as future contracts less than what model did, which mostly represent option contracts with price rather than without price. Moreover, it suggests call option rather than put option. Using t hypothesis test...
متن کاملStatic and dynamic SABR stochastic volatility models: Calibration and option pricing using GPUs
For the calibration of the parameters in static and dynamic SABR stochastic volatility models, we propose the application of the GPU technology to the Simulated Annealing global optimization algorithm and to the Monte Carlo simulation. This calibration has been performed for EURO STOXX 50 index and EUR/USD exchange rate with an asymptotic formula for volatility or Monte Carlo simulation. Moreov...

متن کاملThe Valuation of American Exchange Options with Application to Real Options
An American exchange option gives its owner the right to exchange one asset for another at any time prior to expiration. A model for valuing these options is developed using the Geske-Johnson approach for valuing American put options. The formula is shown to generalize much previous work in option pricing. Application of the general valuation formula to the timing option in capital investment t...
