Answer:
2 cents
Explanation:
The spot price = $0.7000 = 70 cents, The forward rate = $0.6950 = 69.5 cents and the call option with striking price = $0.6800 = 68.00 cents
The annualized six month rate = 3 1/2 % = 3.5 %, therefore the rate = r/n, where n is the number of period per year = 2. Therefore r/n = 3.5% / 2 = 0.035 / 2 = 0.0175
The minimum price = Maximum (spot price - striking price, (forward rate - striking price) / (1 + 0.0175), 0) = Maximum(70 - 68, (69.5 - 68)/ 0.0175, 0)
Minimum price = Maximum (2 , 1.47, 0) = 2 cents
Answer:
$10 profit
Explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the profit or loss to a short position.
Firstly, we identify that the spot price of market index is $900.
Now, a three months forward contract equals a value of $930.
Raising the index to $920 at the expiry date is obviously a profit to the short position.
To calculate the profit here, we simply subtract the index at expiry date from the three months forward contract.
Mathematically, this is equal to $930-$920 = $10 profit
