Seasonality and the valuation of commodity options [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Banking & Finance, 2011
Price movements in many commodity markets exhibit significant seasonal patterns. In this paper, we study the effects of seasonal volatility on models' option pricing performance. In terms of options pricing, a deterministic seasonal component at the price level can be neglected.

The Valuation of Options on Futures Contracts

The Journal of Finance, 1985
ABSTRACTRational restrictions are derived for the values of American options on futures contracts. For these options, the optimal policy, in general, involves premature exercise. A model is developed for valuing options on futures contracts in a constant interest rate setting.

A Note on the Valuation of American Option

Journal of Partial Differential Equations, 2003
It is well known that the pricing problem of an American option can be reduced to an optimal stopping problem using probability and then a free boundary value problem of a parabolic partial differential equation. In this paper, the authors use a PDE approach to show that the pricing problem of an American put option is equivalent to a free boundary ...

Real Option Valuation with Neural Networks

International Journal of Intelligent Systems in Accounting, Finance & Management, 1998
We propose to use neural networks to value options when analytical solutions do not exist. The basic idea of this approach is to approximate the value function of a dynamic program by a neural net, where the selection of the network weights is done via simulated annealing.

On the option valuation and decomposition of exchange option

Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computing, 2002
The authors consider the model for financial market, in which \(n+1\) assets are traded. The price \(S_{t}^0\) of the first of these assets evolves according to the equation \(dS_{t}^0=rS_{t}^0dt,\;S_{0}^0=1,\) where \(r\) is the riskless interest rate.

AUCTIONS, REAL OPTIONS VALUATION, AND PRIVATIZATION [PDF]

open access: possibleInternational Game Theory Review, 2011
This article studies competitive bidding by strategic investors to buy enterprises that are being privatized through sealed-bid auctions. The bidders use a real options approach to enterprise valuation that accounts for asset quality given their private information.

The Analytic Valuation of American Options

Review of Financial Studies, 1990
No analytic solutions exists for the valuation of American options written on futures contracts and foreign currencies for which early exercise may be optimal. This article formulates the American option valuation problem in economically and mathematically meaningful ways. This enables us to derive valuation formulas for American options.

The Valuation of Currency Options

Financial Management, 1983
extended with its underlying assumptions being relaxed. The model has also found many applications in finance. Smith [6] provides a good overall review of the subject. Options on a foreign currency can be defined in the same way as options on a stock. For example, a European call option on a foreign currency is an option to buy one unit of the currency
