11.If a variable x follows the process dx = b dz where dz is a Wiener process, which of the following is the process followed by y = exp(x).
A.dy = by dz
B.dy = 0.5b2y dt+by dz
C.dy = (y+0.5b2y) dt+by dz
D.dy = 0.5b2y dt+b dz
A.dy = by dz
B.dy = 0.5b2y dt+by dz
C.dy = (y+0.5b2y) dt+by dz
D.dy = 0.5b2y dt+b dz
Answer: B
Ito’s lemma shows that the process followed by y is dy = 0.5b2exp(x) dt +bexp(x) dz. Substituting y = exp(x) we get the answer in B.
