This case is a vehicle for discussing the theory and practice of option pricing. The three opportunities for option-pricing analysis are (1) valuation of the warrants proposed as an equity kicker to the government’s loan guarantee as of May 1980; (2) evaluation of the economic fairness of the loan guarantee itself; and (3) valuation of the warrants again in September 1983.
The pedagogical issues in this case are to establish the determinants of an option’s value, to see the correspondence of an option to loan guarantees and other financial phenomena, and to use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
