Question:

(a) Price the option in Problem 7 by Monte Carlo. Use the Numerical Integration algorithm.

(b) Same question using Algorithm 13. How many trials are required to get 3 correct digits in both? What are the runs times for both?

Data in Problem 7

Use a 4-step binomial tree to price a call option with these particulars: S0 = 36, K = 34, r = 0.02, σ = 0.3, T = 4 weeks (28 days).

Data in Algorithm 12 

inputs: So, u, o, T, r, N a = log So + T-0T >see (3.42) 820T E=0 for i= 1,..., N Z~ N(0,1) Y = eZ+a E = E

Data in Algorithm 13

inputs: So, K, T, r, o, N E=0 for i 1,..., N S = So Duse Algo. 2 page 12 to generate ST E = E +G(ST) end for
