Description copied from interface: MonteCarloProduct

This method returns the value random variable of the product within the specified model, evaluated at a given evalutationTime. For a lattice this is often the value conditional to evalutationTime, for a Monte-Carlo simulation this is the (sum of) value discounted to evaluation time. More generally: The value random variable is a random variable V^*(t) such that the time-t conditional expectation of V^*(t) is equal to the value of the financial product in time t. An example for V^*(t) is the sum of t-discounted payoffs. Cashflows prior evaluationTime are not considered.

Specified by:

getValue in interface MonteCarloProduct

Specified by:

getValue in class AbstractMonteCarloProduct

Parameters:

evaluationTime - The time on which this products value should be observed.

model - The model used to price the product.

Returns:

The random variable representing the value of the product discounted to evaluation time

Throws:

CalculationException - Thrown if the valuation fails, specific cause may be available via the cause() method.
