Abstract:
In this letter we show how a variation approach to a portfolio containing a European style option instrument when transformed to an American style instrument can lead to a Black–Scholes style PDE, a backwards partial differential equation, and a Black–Scholes like equality portfolio closed form solution for said American style derivative.
