A real option on a commodity is valued using an implied binomial tree (IBT) calibrated using commodity futures options prices. Estimating an IBT in the absence of spot options (the norm for commodities) allows real option models to be calibrated for the first time to market-implied probability distributions for commodity prices. Also, the existence of long-dated futures options means that good ...

different areas of modern financial tools and processes activities contain the matters like innovations in financial tools engineering and risk management. derivatives and especially stock exchange option is part of this innovation. among all numerical procedures in calculating the value of derivatives and the risk sensitivity parameters of option, binomial models are widely used. in this stud...

Real option analysis (ROA) is a way of valuing real assets by invoking option pricing theory. In contrast to the traditional net present value approach, ROA makes it possible to explicitly incorporating management flexibility. Because of such advantages, ROA has become an important tool for project valuation and is widely used in practice. In this paper, we develop a real option model with regi...

The valuation of the real option to store liquefied natural gas (LNG) at the downstream terminal of an LNG value chain is an important problem in practice. As the exact valuation of this real option is computationally intractable, we develop a novel and tractable heuristic model for its strategic valuation that integrates models of LNG shipping, natural gas price evolution, and inventory contro...
