Question 1
A client wishes to buy forward EUR 10 million with USD for a period of ten months. How much will he be charged?
FOREX: USD/EUR = 1.16
Money market:
USD LIBOR 10 months = 2.73%
EUR LIBOR 10 months = 0.29 %
Question 2
The spot exchange rate is 114 ¥/$, the one-year forward price is 112.58 ¥/$ and prevailing one year continuously compounded risk-free interest rate in the USA is 2.85%.
a) What is the prevailing one-year interest rate in Japan if there is no arbitrage opportunity in the market?
