Derivatives priced so no riskless profit is possible. If mispriced, arbitrageurs act to restore equilibrium.
A derivative can be replicated by a portfolio of the underlying and risk-free asset. Replication cost = derivative price.
Forward price = Spot × (1+r)T + Storage - Convenience yield. For financial assets: F = S(1+r)T.
c + PV(X) = p + S. Links call, put, bond, and stock prices. Violation = arbitrage opportunity.
Model stock as up/down moves. Calculate option values at nodes. Discount back using risk-neutral probabilities.
5 essential formulas for this module.
