How to solve this problem? plz solve it step by step with formulas, thank u! (which one is the risk-free rate? 1% or 2%) Options on Indexes and Currencies Example Suppose that the current exchange rate of AUD to CAD is 1.2 AUD/CAD and o = 0.4463. Find the price of American put option to sell CAD for AUD at K = $1.1 AUD/CAD before or at half a year from now. Assume that the risk-free rates in Canada and Australia are 2% and 1%, respectively. Find the price of the American call option today by using the two period binomial model.
Suppose a European call option to buy 1 euro for 1.40 CAD costs 0.08 CAD. The option maturity is in two months and the forward exchange rate for the same maturity is 1.50 CAD per euro. What arbitrage opportunity exists? Explain how you can exploit this opportunity and how much the profit is. (Ignore the time value of money)

A European put option with strike price $26.00, the underlying asset S (0) is $26 and the return over each period R=1.06. CRR notation d=0.8 and u=1.25 Construct a three-step binomial pricing tree for the European put option and calculate the premium.
use binomial option pricing model for this question. suppose the current spot rate for USD/CHF is 0.7. you need to find the one-year call option price of USD/CHF with the exercise price of 0.68 USD/CHF. Assume that our future states will be either 0.7739 U&SD/CHF or 0.6332 USD/CHF. 1) What are the payoffs of a call option (for both states) 2) what is the hedge ratio of the call option?
Consider the following data (interest rate is per period): S = 100; K = 75;R = 1.20 ; u = 1.5 ; d = .5. 1. What is the binomial price of a European call option with two periods until expiration? What is the price an American option with the same strike price and same time to expiration. Is there ever early exercise? 2. Show that the binomial option price for a European put option with two periods to go until expiration is 3.125. Show that the binomial price for an American put is 6.25. Can you conclude from the difference in prices alone that early exercise may be optimal? When is it optimal? 3. Use your answers to (i) and (ii) to verify that put-call parity holds for European options, but not for American options. Explain all answers in detail or step by step solution.
Suppose you took a long position on a put option with an exercise price of $1.95 per pound and paid a premium $0.20 per pound. Required: a. If the spot exchange rate turns out to be $2.10 per pound on the maturity date, is the put option in-, at-, or out-of-the-money? b. If the spot exchange rate turns out to be $2.10 per pound on the maturity date, will you exercise this option? c. If the spot rate at maturity turns out to be $1.90 per pound, is the contract in-, at-, or out-of-the-money? d. If the spot rate at maturity turns out to be $1.90 per pound, will you exercise this option? The option is Will you exercise this option? Spot Rate $2.10 Spot Rate $1.90
