Answer:
Check the following calculations.
Explanation:
The U.S. firm has $29 million
Investment is for three months
And the interest rate in the United States is .29 percent per month
The value of the investment if the money is invested in U.S
= $29 million *(1+ 0.29%) ^3
= $29.2530 million
The interest rate in Great Britain is .33 percent per month.
The spot exchange rate is £.629
And the three-month forward rate is £.632.
The value of the investment if the money is invested in Great Britain
Value after spot exchange = $29 million *(£.629/$1) = £ 18.241 million
Value after three months interest earning = £ 18.241*(1+0.33%) ^3
= £ 18.4222 million
Exchanging again in US $ after 3 months
= £ 18.4222 *($1/£ .632) = $29.1490 million
Therefore the value of the investment if the money is invested in Great Britain is $29.1490 million.
The value of investment will be more if the money is invested in U.S.
