Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Suppose that investors are risk-neutral and the linear UIP equation holds. You are given the following information: UK interest rate: i = 0.07 US interest rate: i* = 0.02 Expected future spot rate e^e = 8. What is the current spot rate, e? (State your answer as a number to 2 decimal places. Exchange rates are Pounds per Dollar, in natural logs)Suppose that the exchange rate is $0.92/Euro. The dollar-denominatedinterest rate is 4% and the euro-denominated interest rate is 3%.u = 1.2, d = 0.9, T = 0.75, n = 3, and K = $1.00.a. What is the price of a 9-month European put?b. What is the price of a 9-month American put?In a recent e-news, you observe that the 6-month forward rate is $1.5031/Euro. Further, if you invest the dollar, it fetches you interest at the rate of 2% p.a. In comparison, the interest rate in Eurozone is 1% p.a. You also see that CAD 1.5513 are needed to purchase a Euro and CAD 1.332 are needed to buy a US$. Is it possible for you to make an arbitrage profit? If so, which arbitrage strategies will you employ and what will be the profit? Assume that interest rate parity holds and you have one million dollars available to conduct arbitrage.
- Using the UIP equation, assume that the expected future rate (after one year) for euros (in terms of dollars) equals $1.20, while the current spot rate is 1.15. The current interest rate on euro deposits is 2%, and the interest rate on dollar deposits is 3%. Should you invest in the US or in Europe? Neither one In the US In Europe It is indifferent) Suppose the spot exchange rate for the Hungarian Forint is HUF 209/USD. The infiation rate in the US is 3.5% per year and 5.7% in Hungary. What do you predict the exchange rate will be in two-years? _What is the-expected appreciation or depreciation of the USD over this period?Suppose the spot rate for the Canadian dollar is CAD1.034 = USD1, the 3-month forward rate is CAD1.036 = USD1, and the 1-year forward rate is CADS1.039. = USD1. If no other information is available, what will be your guess about the spot rate in 1 year?
- 2. Suppose today's exchange rate is $1.23/€. The three-month interest rates on dollars and euros are 6% and 3 % (both anual rates), respectively. The three-month forward rate is $1.25. A foreign exchange advisory service has predicted that the euro will appreciate to $1.27 within three months. Consider 1 million euros. a.. How would you use forward contracts to speculate in the above situation? b. How would you use money market instruments (borrowing and lending) to speculate? C. Which alternatives (forward contracts or money market instruments) would you prefer? Why? d. Can you make profits without risks? If so, explain and calculate how you do that.Suppose the current USD/EUR spot exchange rate is 1.20$/ €. At the same the euro interest rate amount to 10% per year while the dollar interest rate is 0% per year. a. What is the no-arbitrage one-year USD/EUR forward exchange? b. Suppose the one-year USD/EUR forward exchange was 1.25$/ €. How could you make money from this situation? 4Suppose the risk free rate in pounds is 5.12% and the risk free rate in US dollars is 7.71%. The current £ to $ exchange is 1.43. You and a broker want to agree an exchange rate now for a £ to $ conversion, but where the money will be exchanged in precisely 36 months time. What exchange rate (£ to $) should you and your broker use to ensure there is no arbitrage? Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
- Assume the spot rate between the uk and the US is .€ .6789= $1 while the one year Foward rate is €.6782=$1. The risk free rate in the UK is 3.1 percent. The risk free rate in the U.S is 2.9 percent. How much profit can you earn for the year on a loan of $1,500 by utilizing covered interest abitrage?You are given that the annual Australian dollar interest rate is 1% and the United States annual interest rate is 2.5%. The spot rate for the United States dollar is SA1.20. (a) Using interest rate parity, calculate the forward rate premium of the United States dollar with respect to the Australian dollar.
