Task
Use the expected value of the discounted payo§ under the risk-neutral density Q
V (S; t) = e-r(T-t)EQ [Payof (ST)]
for the appropriate form. of payoff, to consider Asian and lookback options.
Use the Euler-Maruyama (only) scheme for initially simulating the underlying stock price. As an initial example you may use the following set of sample data
Today's stock price S0 = 100
Strike E = 100
Time to expiry (T 一 t) = 1 year
volatility σ = 20%
constant risk-free interest rate r = 5%
Then vary the data to see the affect on the option price. Your completed assignment should centre on a report to include:
Mark SchemeOutline of the finance problem and numerical procedure used 20%
Results - appropriate tables and comparisons 35%
Any interesting observations and problems encountered 25%
Conclusion 15%
References 5%
. Outline of the finance problem and numerical procedure used.
. Results - appropriate tables and comparisons.
. Any interesting observations and problems encountered.
. Conclusion and references
For a Python Jupyter Notebook, a detailed notebook will become the complete report (write- up, code, results).
