Solution: Maturity is 1 year but we need to construct 2-period binominal tree, each with half year.
Given value of u and d must be over a period of six month. If they are over the years, you need to
find over the six months. But I am not assuming that.

Replicating Portfolio:
Make equation to replicate portfolio which consists of H number of shares and B amount invested on
Treasury bond.
Su H +(1+r ) B=Cu
Sd H +( 1+ r)B=Cd
Su=uS∧Sd=dS
C=max (S – K , 0)
At node u:
Cu=130∗1 – 91.41=38.59
Call premium=38.59
At node d:
B=(9 – 104∗0.225)/1.03923=−13.86
Cd=Sd H + B=80∗0.225 – 13.86=4.14
Call premium=4.14
At node t =0
B=(38.59 – 130∗0.689)/1.03923=−49.06
C=100∗0.689 – 49.06=19.84
LHS=P+ S=7.80+100=107.80
