5.   Multiplication Rule (Joint probability that

both events will happen): P(A and B) = P(AB) = P(A|B) × P(B) P(B and A) = P(BA) = P(B|A) × P(A)

6.   Addition Rule (Prob that event A or B will occur):

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(AB) P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) (when events are mutually exclusive because P(AB) = 0)

7.   Independent Events: •   Two events are independent if:

P(B|A) = P(B) or if P(A|B) = P(A)

•   Multiplication Rule for two independent events = P(A & B) = P(AB) = P(A)× P(B)

•   Multiplication Rule for three independent events = P(A and B and C) = P(ABC) = P(A) × P(B) × P(C)

8.   Complement Rule (for an event S) = P(S)

+ P(SC) = 1 (where SC is the event not S) 9.   Total Probability Rule:

P(A) = P(AS) + P(ASC) = P(A|S)×P(S) + P(A|SC)×P(SC) P(A) = P(AS1) + P(AS2) +….+ P(ASn) = P(A|S1)×P(S1) + P(A|S2)×P(S2)… + P(A|Sn)×P(Sn) (where S1, S2, …,Sn are mutually exclusive and exhaustive scenarios)

expiration = ST – F0(T)

4.   Margin Call:

•   Long position: Price↓ that would trigger a margin call = IM req – MM req

•   Short position: Price↑ that would trigger a margin call = IM req – MM req

5.   TED spread = LIBOR – T-Bill rate 6.   At expiration (for option Buyer):

•   Value of Call option = cT = Max (0, ST - X)

•   Profit from Call option = Max (0, ST - X) – c0

•   Value of Put option = pT = Max (0, X- ST)

where, θ (theta) = Present value of the costs and γ (gamma) = Present value of benefits

4.   Arbitrage and Derivatives = Underlying

asset + Opposite position in derivative = Underlying payoff – Derivative payoff = Rf return

5.   Pricing and Valuation of Forward

Contracts:

•   At Expiration F0 ( T) = S0 (1 + r) T or S0 = F0 (T) / (1 + r) T

•   Value of forward (long) during contract life (where t < T) = Vt (T) = St – F0 (T) / (1 + r)(T – t)

•   Value of forward (short) during contract life (where t < T ) = Vt (T) = F0 (T) / (1 + r) (T – t) - St

•   Value of forward (long) at expiration (where t = T) = VT (T) = ST - F0 (T)

•   Value of forward (long) at initiation (where t = 0) = Vt (0, T) = S0 – F0 (T) / (1 + r) T = 0

•   Forward price of an asset with benefits and/or costs = (S0 – γ + θ) (1 + r) T = S0 (1 + r) T – (γ - θ) (1+ r) T

•   Value of Forward contract with benefits and/or costs during the life of the contract = St – (γ - θ) (1 + r) t - F0 (T) / (1 + r) (T – t)

6.   FRAs: An example of 3 × 9 FRA (read as

three by nine): •   Contract expires in 90 days •   Underlying loan settled in 270 days •   Underlying rate is 180-day LIBOR •   For Synthetic FRA (take long position

in a 270-day Euro$ T.D and short position in a 90-day Euro$ T.D

•   For synthetic forward position in a 90-day zero-coupon that begins in 30 days (buy 120-day & sell 30-day zero coupon bonds)

7.   Payoff of Call options:

•   At expiration call option = c T = Max (0, ST –X)

•   Profit (call buyer) = Max (0, ST – X) – c0

•   Profit (call seller) = -Max (0, ST – X) + c0

8.   Payoff of Put options: •   p T = Max (0, X- ST) •   Profit (put buyer) = Max (0, X-ST) – p0 •   Profit (put seller) = - Max (0, X – ST) +

p0

9.   Max Profit/Loss for Option writer/holder: •   Max profit of option seller/writer è

Option premium. •   Max loss of option seller/writer è

unlimited in case of calls; large in case of puts (bounded by zero).

•   Max loss of option holder èOption premium

Put-Call Parity 10.   Protective Put

•   Value PP = p0 + S0 •   Payoff at expiration (put out-of-the-

money) = ST. •   Payoff at expiration (put in-the-

•   Value FC = c0 + X / (1+r) T •   Payoff at expiration (when call out-of-

the-money) = X. •   Payoff at expiration (call in-the-

money) = X + (ST – X) = ST. 12.   Put-Call Parity (to avoid arbitrage) = c0 +

7.   Pricing of Commodity Futures Contracts:

Futures price ≈ Spot price (1 +r) + Storage costs – Convenience yield

8.   Roll yield = Spot price of a commodity – Futures contract price or Roll yield = Futures contract price with expiration date ‘X’– Futures contract price with expiration date ‘Y.

9.   Returns on a passive investment in

commodity futures = Return on the collateral + RP or convenience yield net of storage costs.
