Abstract:

In this paper, installment options on the underlying asset which evolves according to Black-Scholes model and pays constant dividend to its owner will be considered. Applying arbitrage pricing theory, the non-homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation governing the value of installment option is derived. Then, penalty method is used to value the European continuous installment call option.

Valuation of American Continuous-Installment Options

We present three approaches to value American continuous-installment calls and puts and compare their computational precision. In an American continuous-installment option, the premium is paid continuously instead of up-front. At or before maturity, the holder may terminate payments by either exercising the option or stopping the option contract. Under the usual assumptions, we are able to cons...

Valuation for an American Continuous-Installment Put Option on Bond under Vasicek Interest Rate Model

The valuation for an American continuous-installment put option on zero-coupon bond is considered by Kim’s equations under a single factor model of the short-term interest rate, which follows the famous Vasicek model. In term of the price of this option, integral representations of both the optimal stopping and exercise boundaries are derived. A numerical method is used to approximate the optim...

Valuation of European Installment Put Options — Variational Inequality Approach 1

Abstract: In this paper we consider a parabolic variational inequality arising from the valuation of European installment put options. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the problem. Moreover, we obtain C∞ regularity and the bounds of the free boundary. Eventually we show its numerical result by the binomial method.

Option valuation by using discrete singular convolution

This paper explores the utility of a discrete singular convolution (DSC) algorithm for solving the Black–Scholes equation. Both European and American style options, which include all nontrivial plain option pricing problems, are considered to test the accuracy and to examine the efficiency of the present algorithm. Adaptive meshes are constructed to enhance the performance of the DSC algorithm....

Finite Element Method for American Option Pricing: a Penalty Approach

The model for pricing of American option gives rise to a parabolic variational inequality. We first use penalty function approach to reformulate it as an equality problem. Since the problem is defined on an unbounded domain, we truncate it to a bounded domain and discuss error due to truncation and penalization. Finite element method is then applied to the penalized problem on the truncated dom...
