Consider the following two primitive assets:
(i) Risk-less bond (or bank account), with price normalized to 1, pays a face value of Zt+1,f = 1.1 in
two states at t + 1.
(ii) Risky stock that is worth $100 at t and can either provide a payoff of $100 or $150 at t + 1.
′
Define the securities market as the pair ( Pt , Pt+1 ) with N = 2 = S and take the first security as the
N ×1 N ×S
risk-less security and the second one as the stock.
1. Find the AD price of a call on the stock with price Ct at t and strike K = $100 at t + 1.
2. Assume that the market miss-price the call as CtM = 9. Show that an A01 obtains.
