问题如下:
Using two-period binomial model, Jack wants to calculate the terminal value of a put option. If the current price of the underlying asset is $150 and the strike price is $120, the size of an up move is 1.69 and a down move is 0.59. Only when the price is below the strike price can the option has a positive value, otherwise the value will be zero. How many terminal nodes can give back positive return?
选项:
A.1
B.2
C.0
解释:
A is correct. Only the third node has a value less than $120, which is $52.22.
the size of an up move is 1.69 and a down move is 0.59. 我不明白根据这句话,怎么知道是用乘而不是加?上升1.69,难道不是150+1.69吗?
