This paper extends Geske's (1979a) compound European call option pricing model and the Roll (1977), Geske (1979b), and Whaley (1981) (RGW) American call pricing model to the case where the variance of the underlying asset changes deterministically. The theoretical analysis shows that the generalized models use integrals of the time-varying variance in the same way as Merton's (1973) generalization of the Black and Scholes (1973) European option pricing model. The resulting analytic expressions require two variance parameters and an adjusted correlation coefficient for the relevant bivariate normal distribution. The comparison of our time-varying model with RGW reveals small differences which may vary in sign. For at-the-money options, if stock variability decreases after dividend payment dates, then initial RGW prices are biased low; conversely, RGW prices are too high if variability has a tendency to increase after dividends.

Focusing on recent developments in the field, American-Style Derivatives provides an extensive treatment of option pricing with emphasis on the valuation of American options on dividend-paying assets. This book reviews valuation principles for European contingent claims and extends the analysis to American contingent claims. It presents basic valuation principles for American options including barrier, capped, and multi-asset options. It also reviews numerical methods for option pricing and compares their relative performance. Ideal for students and researchers in quantitative finance, this material is accessible to those with a background in stochastic processes or derivative securities.

This paper addresses the problem of valuing American call options with caps on dividend paying assets. Since early exercise is allowed, the valuation problem requires the determination of optimal exercise policies. Options with two types of caps are analyzed: constant caps and caps with a constant growth rate. For constant caps the optimal exercise policy is to exercise at the first time at which the underlying asset's price equals or exceeds the minimum of the cap and the optimal exercise boundary for the corresponding uncapped option. For caps that grow at a constant rate the optimal exercise strategy can be specified by three endogenous parameters.

This book presents techniques for valuing derivative securities at a level suitable for practitioners, students in doctoral programs in economics and finance, and those in masters-level programs in financial mathematics and computational finance. It provides the necessary mathematical tools from analysis, probability theory, the theory of stochastic processes, and stochastic calculus, making extensive use of examples. It also covers pricing theory, with emphasis on martingale methods. The chapters are organized around the assumptions made about the dynamics of underlying price processes. Readers begin with simple, discrete-time models that require little mathematical sophistication, proceed to the basic Black-Scholes theory, and then advance to continuous-time models with multiple risk sources. The second edition takes account of the major developments in the field since 2000. New topics include the use of simulation to price American-style derivatives, a new one-step approach to pricing options by inverting characteristic functions, and models that allow jumps in volatility and Markov-driven changes in regime. The new chapter on interest-rate derivatives includes extensive coverage of the LIBOR market model and an introduction to the modeling of credit risk. As a supplement to the text, the book contains an accompanying CD-ROM with user-friendly FORTRAN, C++, and VBA program components.

We introduce a fast and widely applicable numerical pricing method that uses recursive projections. The method is based on a simple grid sampling of value functions and state-price densities. Numerical illustrations with different American and Bermudan payoffs with dividend paying stocks in the Black Scholes and Heston models show that the method is fast, accurate, and general. We find that the early exercise boundary of an American call option on a discrete dividend paying stock is higher under the Merton and Heston models than under the Black-Scholes model, as opposed to the continuous dividend case. A large database of call options on stocks with quarterly dividends shows that adding stochastic volatility and jumps to the Black-Scholes benchmark reduces the amount foregone by call holders failing to optimally exercise by 25%. Transaction fees cannot fully explain the suboptimal behavior.
