Abstract
This paper develops a symbolic computational pricing algorithm that locates the No-Arbitrage price of a contingent claim (derivative security) in a world with realistic income taxes. By maintaining the price of the contingent claim as a symbolic function, we can use the concept of a fixed-point theorem to locate the price of the option that will make it impossible to create after-tax arbitrage opportunities
