A LOGISTIC BROWNIAN MOTION WITH A PRICE OF DIVIDEND YIELDING ASSET

Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

In this paper, we have used the idea of Onyango (2003) he used to develop a logistic equation used in natural science to develop a logistic geometric Brownian motion with a price of dividend yielding asset since in reality, assets do pay dividends to shareholders at regular intervals after a maturity period which normally after one year. We have first derived a deterministic Walrasian price-adjustment model with price of dividend yielding asset after which we have introduced the stochastic effect of noise to derive a logistic geometric Brownian motion with a unique volatility function  (S,t) such that the observed option price is consistent with the price of the dividend yielding asset model.
