Thus, in short, the form is in a monopolistically competitive market hence the quantity of at least one input is fixed.

Your firm (an Australian firm) makes a sale to a Japanese customer. The sale price is 200 million Japanese Yen payable in exact

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

An Australian Firm Selling to a Japanese Customer

a) Direct Quote of the Exchange Rate between Australian Dollar and Japanese Yen:

A$ 1 = ¥90

Meaning 1 Australian Dollar = 90 Japanese Yen.

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90

b)Theoretical Current Forward Exchange Rate, quoted in terms of JPY/AUD for delivery in three months:

= Spot Rate x (1 + Japanese Interest Rate) / (1 + Australian Interest Rate) x 360/90

= ¥90 x (1 +0.005) / (1 +0.03) x 360/90 = ¥90 x 1.005/1.03 x 360/90

= ¥351.26214 =A$1

c) The Australian firm can take advantage of any decreases in the exchange rate and also ensure that it receives at least Australian $2 million by entering into a Currency Forwards Contract.

d) If the spot exchange rate in 3 month's time is:

(i) AUD/JPY=150, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the gain of:

Forward Exchange outcome in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥150 =

A$ 1,333,333.33333

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - A$ 1,333,333.33333 = A$666,666.66667

(ii) AUD/JPY = 50, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the loss of:

Forward Exchange outcome = in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥50 =

A$4 million

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - $4 million = -A$2million

Explanation:

a) Currency forwards contracts and future contracts are used to hedge the currency risk. For example, a company expecting to receive ¥200 million in 90 days, can enter into a forward contract to deliver the ¥200 million and receive equivalent Australian dollars in 90 days at an exchange rate specified today.

b) If A$ 1 = ¥90

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90 in Australian Dollars.
