Derivation of the premium for a choose option

vendredi 27 février 2015

t = time when you choose.



The payoff at time t for a chooser option is Max[C(t),P(t)].



Thus the premium for the chooser option is PresentValue(Max[C(t),P(t)]) = Max[C(0),P(0)]



The reasoning is flawed because that is not the premium in general. Max[C(0),P(0)] is only the premium if t = 0.



Why is this reasoning flawed?



PV[C(t)] = C(0)

PV[P(t)] = P(0)





Once again, it's is getting late and things are no longer making sense. It is time to sleep.
