A geological engineer has the job of designing mines to remove minerals (like metals and coal) in a safe and efficient way to use in utilities and manufacturing. These engineers also draw up technical reports for other engineers, managers, and miners.
DISCRETE DIVIDENDS IN EQUITY DERIVATIVES. One of the complications in equity derivative modelling is how to treat dividends. One of the complications in equity derivative modelling is how to treat dividends. On dividend payout, or ex div, dates, the underlying spot drops by the dividend amount, ignoring tax. This introduces discrete deterministic jumps into the geometric Brownian process assumed within the Black-Scholes framework. The underlying stochastic process in the presence of discrete dividend can be expressed as:
Shareholders earn dividends. A dividend payment is the amount a shareholder gets from the profits made by a company they hold shares in. The amount is based on the specific number and type of shares they own. This is the easiest way to define dividend. Dividends are usually paid in cash but they can also be issued in shares or stock too.
