Formulas that can be used to evaluate the options are obtained, which include not only the elements of an option: the price of the call option, the exercise price and the expiration date, but also the riskless interest rate, nevertheless exclude the volatility of the underlying asset. In practice, the evaluated results obtained by these formulas can provide references of making strategic decision for an investor who buys the call option and a company who sells the call option.展开更多
