Handley (2001) describes how to value variable purchase options (VPO). A VPO is basically a call option, but where the number of underlying shares is stochastic rather than fixed, or more precisely, a deterministic function of the asset price. The strike price of a VPO is typically a fixed discount to the underlying share price at maturity. The payoff at maturity...

Samuelson 1965 Option Pricing Formula is an options pricing formula that pre-dates Black-Scholes-Merton. This version includes Analytical Greeks. Samuelson (1965; see also Smith, 1976) assumed the asset price follows a geometric Brownian motion with positive drift, p. In this way he allowed for positive interest rates and a risk premium. c = SN(d1) * e^((rho...
Boness 1964 Option Pricing Formula is an options pricing model that pre-dates Black-Scholes-Merton. This model includes Analytical Greeks. Boness (1964) assumed a lognormal asset price. Boness derives the following value for a call option: c = SN(d1) - Xe^(rho * T)N(d2) d1 = (log(S / X) + (rho + v^2 / 2) * T) / (v * T^0.5) d2 = d1 - (v * T^0.5) where rho...
