Black-Scholes Model

★★★★★Graduate+

📖Definition

Black-Scholes model calculates theoretical prices of European options. Based on stochastic calculus.

📐Formulas

C = S₀ N(d₁) - Ke^-rTN(d₂)

Call option price

d₁ = (ln(S₀/K) + (r + σ²/2)T)/(σ√T)

d₁ calculation

d₂ = d₁ - σ√T

d₂ calculation

(∂ V)/(∂ t) + (1)/(2)σ² S² (∂² V)/(∂ S²) + rS(∂ V)/(∂ S) - rV = 0

Black-Scholes PDE
