A text/disk package for undergraduate and graduate students in elective courses in business and economics, covering much of the same material as the author's previous text, Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives , but in a way that readers with limited training in mathematics will find easier to understand. Part I covers futures and swaps markets, and Part II, the bulk of the book, covers options markets. Includes chapter quiz questions and explained answers, additional questions and problems, mathematical appendices, and a glossary. This third edition features a new chapter on value at risk, and new material on swaps, volatility smiles, and standard market models for bond options, interest-rate caps and floors, and European swap options. The accompanying disk contains new Windows-based software specifically designed to complement the text, allowing readers to value different options, display binomial trees, and plot relationships between variables.
