Answer:

at maturity I will receive 1,155.6

the real return is 7%

the nominal will be 15.56%

Explanation:

As it is indexed it will paid a real rate of 7% adjusted for 8% inflation

1,000(1+r)(1+\delta)=Amount

1,000 x 1.07 x 1.08 = 1,155.6 received at maturity

no know the nominal rate we do:

\frac{Amount}{Principal}-1

\frac{1,155.6}{1,000}-1

nominal = 0.1556 = 15.56%

Bess [88]

Answer:

So we can offer for the house $180119.95

Explanation:

Monthly income =$4000

Monthly mortgage payment allowed (P)= 25% of 4000= $1000

Interest rate per month (i)= 0.5%

Number of months in total (n)= 30*12= 360

Maximum loan affordable = P*(1-(1/(1+i)^n))/i

=1000*(1-(1/(1+0.5%)^360))/0.5%

=$166791.61

Closing cost is 4% of loan value = 166791.61*4% =$6671.66

Balance Amount left for down payment = 20000-6671.66

=$13328.34

It means we can pay $6671.66 for closing cost of Loan and $13328.34 for down payment.

Cost of house paid maximum = Down payment + Affordable loan

=13328.34+166791.61

=$180119.95

So we can offer for the house $180119.95

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.
