We extend and generalize some results on bounding security prices under several stochastic volatility models that provide closed-form expressions for option prices. In detail, we have computed analytical expressions for benchmark and standard good-deal bounds. For all the models, our findings...

This chapter analyzes the empirical performance of alternative option pricing models using Black and Scholes (1973) as a benchmark. Specifically, we consider the Heston (1993) and Corrado and Su (1996) models and price call options on the S&P 500 index over the period from November 2010 to April...
