This paper gives an overview of simulation based procedures, which have proved to be efficient in valuing American options and therefore real options. Many of them integrate sequential stochastic simulations in the backward recursive programming approach to determine the early-exercise frontier....

Boyle and Vorst work in the framework of the binomial model and derive self-financing strategies perfectly replicating the final payoffs to long and short positions in call and put options, assuming proportional transactions costs on trades in the stock and no transactions costs on trades in the...
