DerivativeOptions Contract….
How they work?
Long Call Option
Suppose you think BBC stock will rise in the next four months.
The stock trades at $100 now. You don’t want to buy the stock outright but instead would like to have the option to purchase if the stock does go above $100. Option price is $3.
You would buy a CALL with a strike price of $100 expiring in 4 mths by paying $3 for it.
If the Px goes up, lets say to $110, you would exercise the call!... contd

DerivativeOptions Contract….
How they work?
Long Call Option
This means,
You would be able to BUY the stock at $100 when the market price is at $110.
And then be able to sell it at the MKT Px with profit.

Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
6 Main Factors of Option pricing
1. Current Px of Underlying asset
2. Strike Price
3. Time of Expiration
4. Expected volatility over option life
5. Short term Risk-Free interest rate over option life
6. Anticipated C/F’s on underlying asset

Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
Basic Components of Option Price
1. Intrinsic Value
2. Time Premium
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
Basic Components of Option Price
1. Intrinsic Value
Economic value of the option if exercised immediately.
If no positive value results, than intrinsic is zero.
2. Time Premium
Amount by which the option price exceeds its intrinsic value
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract…. Price Components of Options….
Basic Components of Option Price
1. Intrinsic Value
Difference b/w the current price of asset & strike price, IF positive.
Example:
a) If strike px = 100, asset px is 105, then intrinsic value = ?
b) If strike px = 100, asset px is 95, then intrinsic value = ?

Basic Components of Option Price
1. Intrinsic Value
Difference b/w the current price of asset & strike price, IF positive.
Example:
a) If strike px = 100, asset px is 105, then intrinsic value = 105-100=5
b) If strike px = 100, asset px is 95, then intrinsic value = 0
Salaar - Finance
Derivative - OptionsMore Terminology….
In the money
When strike price of Call is ? asset px. (profitable), intrinsic value >0
Out of the money
When strike price of Call is ? asset px (NOT profitable), intrinsic value = 0
At the money
When strike px of call is ? asset (NOT profitable), intrinsic value = 0
Salaar - Finance
Derivative - OptionsIntrinsic Value relationships….
In the money
When strike price of Call is below asset px. (profitable), intrinsic value >0
Out of the money
When strike price of Call is above asset px (NOT profitable), intrinsic value = 0
At the money
When strike px of call is same as asset (NOT profitable), intrinsic value = 0
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Price Components of Options….
Basic Components of Option Price
1. Time Premium
Amount by which the Option price EXCEEDS its intrinsic value (due to time)
Example:
a) If strike px = 100, asset px is 105, option px = 9- Time premium = ?
b) If strike px = 100, asset px is 90, option px = 9 – Time premium = ?

Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
6 Main Factors of Option pricing (Breakdown)
1. Current Px of Underlying asset
2. Strike Price
3. Time of Expiration
4. Expected volatility over option life
5. Short term Risk-Free interest rate over option life
6. Anticipated C/F’s on underlying asset
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
1. Current Px of Underlying asset
Option px changes as price of underlying changes.
Call px increases w/increase in asset px (for same strike)
Put px decreases w/increase in asset px
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
2. Strike Px
The lower the strike px, the higher the px of a call
The higher the strike px, the higher the px of put
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
3. Time to expiration
An option is a wasting asset & has no value after expiration!
The longer the time, greater the price (time premium)
NOTE: probability of a favorable px move decreases with less time
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
4. Expected Px Volatility of Asset over option life
Volatility is measured by standard deviation
The more the Vols, (greater the probability of favorable px move),
…Greater the option px
NOTE: Beta (systematic risk) is not used. Total vols. is relevant
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
5. Short term risk-free rate (over option life)
Greater the Rf, greater the call option px
NOTE:
Buying an option frees up cash for investor from buying the underlying.
This can then be invested at the Rf!
So… greater Rf, more attractive the Option, greater the option px
in case of Put…
option px will be lower, since selling directly provides invest able funds
Salaar - Finance
Options Contract….Pricing of Options….
6. Anticipated C/F’s from asset (over option life)
C/F from asset makes the asset more attractive &
Decreases the call option px
&
Increase the put option px
NOTE: Option holders don’t have interim C/F rights
Salaar - Finance
Summary….Pricing of Options….
6 Main Factors of Option pricing
1. Current Px of Underlying asset – increases CALL
2. Strike Price – Lower the strike, higher the CALL

4. Expected volatility over option life – higher vols, higher px
5. Short term Risk-Free rate – Higher Rf, Higher Call px,-lower Put px
6. C/F’s on underlying asset – Higher C/F’s, lower call px
