题目详情

考虑执行价 K=0K=0 的跨式策略(straddle),标的价格 SN(0,1)S\sim N(0,1)

先求跨式的期望价值 vv,然后已知 v2v^2 可写为 aπ\dfrac{a}{\pi}aa 为有理数)。求 aa

We have a straddle strategy with strike K=0K = 0. The underlying asset price is SN(0,1)S \sim N(0,1). First, find the expected value of the straddle, vv, then given that v2v^2 can be written in the form aπ\dfrac{a}{\pi} for a rational number aa. Find aa.

解析

跨式(call+put)在 K=0K=0 时的支付为

(S0)++(0S)+=S.(S-0)^+ + (0-S)^+=|S|.

因此 v=E[S]v=\mathbb{E}[|S|]。对标准正态 ZN(0,1)Z\sim N(0,1),有

E[Z]=2π.\mathbb{E}[|Z|]=\sqrt{\frac{2}{\pi}}.

所以

v2=2π,v^2=\frac{2}{\pi},

因此 a=2a=\boxed{2}
