  1. Futures price on stock expiring in 3 months.
  •  If stock spot price is 50 baht
  •  3 months risk free rate  = 4%/year

What you should do if

  1.  futures on stock is at 55 baht
  2. Futures on stock is 46.50 baht

คำนวณหา Expected Spot Price

F0,t (Expected Spot Price) = S0(1+C)

                          = 50(1+0.04*3/12)        = 50.5

  1. futures on stock is at 55 baht

        Ans: เนื่องจากคาดว่าราคา Future ในอนาคตจะลดลง ดังนั้น จึงควร short future หรือ long stock      (เป็น cash & carry)

  1. Futures on stock is 46.50 baht

        Ans: เนื่องจากคาดว่าราคา Future ในอนาคตจะเพิ่มสูงขึ้น ดังนั้น จึงควร long future หรือ shot stock (เป็น reverse cash & carry)

  1. Assuming the following
  • Cash price of ABC stock = 100 Baht
  • Expected dividend payment for ABC in 1 month for 5 Baht/Stock
  • Interest rate = 8% per year (continuous compounding)

What is the futures price of ABC maturing in 3 months?

Ans: ใช้ Cost and carry in continuous compounding ในการคำนวณราคา future ได้ดังนี้

                                F0 = (S0-I) er*T

                        โดย S0 = 100

                                 I = dividend*e-rT = 5*e-0.08*(3/12) = 4.966

                                        r = 0.08

                                T = 3/12

                        F0 = (100-4.966)* e0.08*3/12  = 96.9538 บาท

ดังนั้น futures price of ABC maturing in 3 months ราคาเท่ากับ 96.953 บาท

  1. [pic 2]Assuming the following
  • Cash price of stock A is $50.
  • Assuming that the interest rate (continuously compounded) is 8% per annum for all maturities.
