In the literature, some researches use the second-order Taylor expansion to approximate the price of Asian options and they assume the Quadratic approximation is normally or chi-square distributed. In this thesis, we first derive the formula by improving the precision of the Taylor expansions. Next, we suggest that we even do not need to truncate the random variable via Taylor expansions, and the numerical results witness that our second formula is the most accurate approximation for selected values of the underlying parameters.dditionally, we derive the error upper bound for some formulas, and we also observe the rationality of all the assumptions by using the histogram Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, we leave all the troublesome calculations in Appendix.Acknowledgements..ibstract..ii Introduction..1 The BBC Model..5.1 The put-call parity for Asian options..8.2 The fixed-floating symmetry relations for Asian options..10.3 Upper bound to the pricing error..10 The Enhanced Linear Model by Chung..13.1 Upper bound to the pricing error..15 The Quadratic model..18.1 Tsao''s Quadratic model..18.2 Chung''s Quadratic model..19.2.1 Upper bound to the error..20.2.2 Chung''s Quadratic model with a Normal distribution as a proxy..25.2.3 Chung''s Quadratic model with a central chi-square distribution as a proxy..27 Numerical Analysis..32.1 Histograms for the unknown distributions..32.2 A central chi-square distributed approximation with the true moments..37.3 Numerical Comparisons..39 Conclusions..45ppendix A.
