Answer:

B) $1,187.50

Explanation:

The computation of the total profit or loss on this investment is given below:

Expiration price = 1061'4  = 1061 + 4 ÷ 8 = 1061.50

Quoted price = 1056'6 = 1056 + 6 ÷ 8 = 1056.75

Now the profit is

= (1061.50 - 1056.75) × 5000 × 5

= $1,187.50

Hence, the profit on this investment is $1,187.50

Use the information below to answer the following questions. Currency per U.S. $ Australia dollar 1.2377 6-months forward 1.2356
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Missing word <em>"a. What must the six-month risk-free rate be in Japan"</em>

<em />

a. Spot rate = 1 US $ = 1.2377 Aus.dollar

Forward rate = 1 US $ = 1.2356 Aus.dollar

<u>1.2356</u> = <u>(1 + i Ad)</u>

1.2377     (1 + 0.05)

0.9983 * (1.05) = 1 + i.Ad

1.048215 = 1 + i.Ad

i.Ad = 1.048215 - 1

i.Ad = 0.048215

i.Ad = 4.82%

b. Spot rate = 1 US $ = 100.3300 Japan Yen

Forward rate = 1 US $ = 100.0500 Japan Yen

<u>100.0500</u> = <u>(1 + i Ad)</u>

100.3300     (1 + 0.05)

0.9972 * (1.05) = 1 + i.Ad

1.04706 = 1 + i.Ad

i.Ad = 1.04706 - 1

i.Ad = 0.04706

i.Ad = 4.71%
