Black-Scholes-Merton and Binomial Option Pricing 10e

Run Binomial Model

Instructions

Instructions: Insert values in highlighted cells. Risk-free rate, standard deviation and yield can be entered as decimal or percentage (e.g., .052 or 5.2 for 5.2 %). Select form (discrete or continuous) for risk-free rate. Black-Scholes values automatically recalculate. Click on “Run Binomial Option Pricing Model” button to recalculate binomial values. Input cells have double borders. Output cells have single borders. Up to 5,000 time steps can be used in the binomial model. Input a continuous dividend yield or up to 0 discrete dividends. Do not enter both or the discrete dividends will be ignored. This spreadsheet can be used to calculate options on forwards or futures using the Black variation of the Black-Scholes model. Input the forward or futures price instead of the asset price and input the risk-free rate as both the risk-free rate and the dividend yield. Do not enter discrete dividends. To price foreign currency options, input the spot rate as the asset price, the domestic interest rate as the risk-free rate and the foreign interest rate as the dividend yield. Do not enter discrete dividends.
