Abstract

In this paper, the boundary conditions for put-call parity are extended to take into account the potential rational early exercise of an option and the possibility that dividends and capitalisation changes will differ from expectations. A series of statistical tests provide the basis for a conclusion in favour of put-call parity and the hypothesised risk-return relationships in the Australian exchange traded options market over the sample period.
