When do we need to discount the strike price for d1 in Black-Scholes?

samedi 21 février 2015

The "generalized form" of BS uses the present value of the strike price,

but we don't need to discount the strike price for non-dividend paying stocks,

continuous dividend paying stocks,

currency,

futures,

etc.



Am I right in saying the ONLY scenario where you need to discount the strike price in the d1 formula (the ln(S/K) part) is if there is a discrete dividend, and no other time?
