Book Description
In this paper, we derive option bounds from concurrently expiring option prices assuming the (pricing) representative investor's relative risk aversion is bounded. We show that given n concurrently expiring options, the option bounds are given by pricing kernels that have (n+2)- segmented piecewise constant elasticity. Closed form formulas are presented for the case where the distribution of the stock price is log-normal.
