Hi there,
frankly to say, I'm always not clearly understand what's the meaning by "valuing options and guarantees" in part 3, Chapter 32. Does it mean for determining a value for provision/reserving for the component? or determining a value for pricing for the component?
in the syllabus objectives of Chapter 32, P1 of the chapter, 11.7.2, point 2, "the reasons why the assumptions and methods used to place a value on guarantees and options may differ from those used for calculating the accounting provisions needed". literally understand it's the difference between pricing and provision/reserving, am i right? otherwise how to understand this syllabus point?
from the content in P12, Chapter 32 valuation of liabilities, a couple of paragraphs beneath the sub-title of "option exercise rate influences", is it saying that assuming the highest cost for provision/reserving, while may hold pretty less cautious assumptions for pricing?
for Q32.9 (i), read the answer, where is the value of the questioned option?
