Earlier this month you obtained a loan of 10 million Canadian dollars from a bankin Toronto to finance the construction of a new plant in Montreal. At the time the loan wasreceived, the exchange rate was $0.81 to the Canadian dollar. By the end of the month, ithas unexpectedly dropped to $0.75. Has your company made a gain or a loss as a result,and by how much?A U.S. firm, sells merchandise today to a British company for £100,000. The current exchange rate is $1.38/£, the account is payable in three months, and the firm chooses to hedge by borrowing £98,765.43 today and exchanging the proceeds today for dollars; the loan will be paid back with the £100,000 accounts receivable (money market hedge).

- have been recruited by Sustainable Lambs LLC, which is based in Dubai, as the international finance analyst. The company is importing mostly from Canada, and you are interested in using foreign currency (FX) options to manage the foreign currency exposure Given a contract with a transaction value of Canadian dollars (CADS) 150,000 which is expected to be paid in 3 months: (c) The strike price for a March expiring contract is currently AED 2.65/ CADS with a premium of AED 0.05/CADS. Assuming 1 contract on CADS option is worth CADS 150,000, estimate the profit and loss under each of the following possible future exchange rates between the UAE dirham and Canadian dollar for a long call FX option: FX rate (AED/€) 1 2.5 2.65 2.7 3.5 4 Profit/Loss (AED)Suppose that Retrojo Inc. is a U.S. based MNC that will need to purchase F$1.10 million (Fijian dollars, F$) worth of imports from Fiji in 90 days. Currently, the spot rate for the Fijian dollar is $0.53 per F$. Suppose that Retrojo negotiates a forward contract with a bank, which commits it to purchasing Fijian dollars at F$1,100,000.00 at $0.53 per Fijian dollar in 90 days. Thus, Retrojo knows with certainty that it will need F$1,100,000.00 × $0.53 per Fijian dollars = $583,000.00 for this exchange. Assume the Fijian dollar depreciates over this time period to $0.42 per Fijian dollar. If this were the case the, outside of the contract with the bank, only $ (U.S. dollars) would be needed to exchange for the required F$1,100,000.00..
