Types of Options

• Rights

• Warrants

• Convertibles

• Puts

• Calls

A Growing Market – puts and calls can be traded on:

• Common Stock

• Stock Indexes

• Debt Instruments

• Foreign currencies

• Commodities

• Financial futures

Why so much interest in options?

• “…investors can buy a lot of price action with a limited amount of capital, while nearly always enjoying limited exposure to risk.”

Why Options?

• A basic question asked by investors is: “Why buy stock options instead of shares in the underlying stock?”

• To answer this question, we compare the possible outcomes from these two investment strategies:– Buy the underlying stock– Buy options on the underlying stock

Example: Buying the Underlying Stock versus Buying a Call Option

• Suppose IBM is selling for $90 per share and call options with a strike price of $90 are $5 per share.

• Investment for 100 shares:– IBM Shares: $9,000– One listed call option contract: $500

• Suppose further that the option expires in three months.

• Finally, let’s say that in three months, the price of IBM shares will either be: $100, $80, or $90.

Example: Buying the Underlying Stock versus Buying a Call Option, Cont.

• Let’s calculate the dollar and percentage return given each of the prices for IBM stock:

Buy 100 IBM Shares ($9000 Investment):

Buy One Call Option ($500 Investment):

1. Underlying stock price per share

2. Exercise (striking) price of the option contract

3. Price (Premium) of the option contract

Call Option PricingCall Option Pricing

• Option premium reflects:

• Intrinsic value of the option,

• plus the option’s time value

• Premium = IV + TV

• Time Value = Premium - IV

Call Option Pricing[ABC-MAY-80]

• Intrinsic value (IV): IV = Stock price - exercise price IV = $81.75 - $80.00 = $1.75

Call Option Pricing[ABC-MAY-80]

• Time value (TV): TV = premium - intrinsic value TV = $3.75 - $1.75 = $2.00

Listed Option Quoteson the Web

Put Option Pricing[ABC-JUL-80]

• Intrinsic value (IV): IV = Exercise price - stock price IV = $80.00 - $79.00 = $1.00

Put Option PricingPut Option Pricing[ABC-JUL-80][ABC-JUL-80]

• Time value (TV): TV = premium - intrinsic value TV = $3.00 – 1.00 = $2.00

• Example:– buy Compq-May-40

– sell Compq-May-45

– objective: price between $40 - $45


• “Time” or “calendar” spread: different expiration dates


• Example:

–buy Compq-Jun-40

–sell Compq-May-40

–objective: timed appreciation


• ““Butterfly” spread: buy and sell Butterfly” spread: buy and sell different options at same timedifferent options at same time

Index Options

• Put or call written on a market index

–DJIA

Index Options

• Settled in cash

• 100 times index value

• Example (S & P 500):– 1,418 (Value) – 1,400 (Strike) = 18

– 18 x 100 = $1,800

Stock Index Options

• Because the actual delivery of all stocks comprising a stock index is impractical, stock index options have a cash settlement procedure.– if the option expires in the money,

the option writer simply pays the option holder the intrinsic value of the option.

“LEAPS” Options

• Long-term Equity AnticiPation Securities

• Maturities up to 3 years• Similar to options in other

respects:– 100 shares– buy or sell at a specified price– stated maturity date
