The Black-Scholes model estimates the theoretical value of a European call and put options whose ultimate value depends on the price of the stock at the expiration date. You can use the Black-Scholes calculator to determine the fair market value of a European call or put option, using the five primary components of options pricing:
- Option’s strike price
- Risk-free rate
- Stock’s current price
- Time to expiration
- Standard deviation of stock returns
