    The Black-Scholes option pricing formula is used widely in practice, especially by international banks in trading OTC options.

    Explanation:

    The Black-Scholes option pricing formula is used to calculate the fair price of a call or put option. It is done by considering six variables:

    volatility type of option underlying stock price time strike price risk-free rate

    The price for a risky asset (e. g. private corporation stock) is calculated against the price of a risk free asset (e. g. government bond). It can only be used to set a price for European options since American options can be exercised before the expiration date which doesn't fit into the fixed variables of the formula.
