Hi all,I am trying to resolve the following exercise (exercise number 30.20) in Options, Futures and Other Derivatives (8th edition)Quote30.20. Use the DerivaGem software to value 1*4, 2*3, 3*2, and 4*1 European swapoptions to receive fixed and pay floating. Assume that the 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-yearinterest rates are 6%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, and 7%, respectively. The payment frequency onthe swap is semiannual and the fixed rate is 6% per annum with semiannual compounding.Use the Hull and White model with a = 3% and sigma = 1%. Calculate the volatilityimplied by Black?s model for each option.But I do not find the same values.Thanks in advance for your help.
