Question

On November 1, 2023, Cheng Company (a U.S.-based company) forecasts the purchase of goods from a foreign supplier for 310,000 yuan. Cheng expects to receive the goods on April 30, 2024, and make immediate payment. On November 1, 2023, Cheng enters a six-month forward contract to buy 310,000 yuan. The company properly designates the forward contract as a cash flow hedge of a forecasted foreign currency transaction. Forward points excluded in assessing hedge effectiveness and amortized to net income using a straight-line method on a monthly basis over the life of the contract. The following U.S. dollar–Yuan exchange rates apply:

Date Spot Rate Forward Rate (to April 30, 2024)
November 1, 2023 $ 0.42 $ 0.405
December 31, 2023 0.41 0.380
April 30, 2024 0.39 N/A

As expected, Cheng receives goods from the foreign supplier on April 30, 2024, and pays 310,000 yuan immediately. Cheng sells the imported goods in the local market in May 2024.
