Answer:B. One year from now Bond A's price will be higher than it is today.

Explanation:A Noncallable bond is a bond whose investment cannot be redeemed before its maturity date by the issuer, it can only be redeemed after the payment of a penalty.

The issuer of a noncallable bond makes itself vunerable to interest rate risk mainly because, at the issuance of the bond, it is locked to the interest rate it will pay only when the bond's maturity date is achieved.

You are attempting to value a call option with an exercise price of $100 and one year to expiration. The underlying stock pays n

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

$13.64

Explanation:

Given:

Exercise price,X = $100

Current price = $100

Value when price is up, uS = $120

Value when price is down, dS= $80

Risk free interest rate = 10%

First calculate hedge ratio, H:

$H = \frac{C_u - C_d}{uS - dS}$

Where,

Cu = uS - X

= 120 - 100

= $20

$H = \frac{20 - 0}{120 - 80} = \ftac{1}{2}$

A risk free portfolio involves one share and two call options.

Find cost of portfolio:

Cost of portfolio = Cost of stock - Cost of the two cells.

= $100 - 2C

This portfolio is risk free. The table below shows that

_______________

Portforlio 1:

Buy 1 share $80; Write 2 calls: $0; Total: ($80 + 0) $80

____________________

Portforlio 2:

Buy 1 share: $120; Write 2 calls: -$40; Total: ($120 - $40) $80

Check for oresent value of the portfolio:

Present value $= \frac{80}{1 + 0.10} = 72.73$

Value = exercise price - value of option

$72.73 = $100 - 2C

Find call option, C

$C = \frac{100 - 72.73}{2} = 13.64$

Call option's value = $13.64
