European option value with continuous dividend yield: an option at expiry returns zero · case 02

Expiring in-the-money options are valued at zero.

Case contract

Inputs kind, spot S, strike K, rate r, dividend yield q, volatility sigma and calendar days to expiry. T = days/365. At days == 0 return intrinsic value. Otherwise d1 = (ln(S/K) + (r - q + sigma^2/2)T)/(sigma sqrt T), d2 = d1 - sigma sqrt T, call = S e^{-qT} N(d1) - K e^{-rT} N(d2), put = K e^{-rT} N(-d2) - S e^{-qT} N(-d1). Round to 6.

Why this case matters

Option expiry, exercise and settlement engines move cash and shares; a wrong branch misstates obligations.
