All values other than Black-Scholes were computed by means of Formula 1 with the following inputs: , , , , , , , , , , , , and . The “constant interest rate” setting is defined by taking an interest rate equal to 3%. The “stochastic interest rate” setting is defined by taking , , , , and . The “low intensity jumps” setting is defined by taking , , and . The “high intensity jumps” setting is defined by taking , , and .
