In doing so the cash flows are discounted using market interest rates appropriate for the related risks and remaining terms to maturity, interest that has been accrued but not yet paid is not taken into consideration. This approach is known as “clean price” valuation. The value of options is calculated using option price models and generally accepted basic assumptions. In general, the particular value of an option is calculated using the price of the underlying value, its volatility, the agreed strike price, a risk-free interest rate, and the remaining term to the expiration date of the option.
