Foreign Exchange Risk and the Cost of Borrowing Swiss Francs. The chapter demonstrated that a firm borrowing in a foreign currency could potentially end up paying a very different effective rate of interest than what it expected. Using the same baseline values of a debt principal of SF1.4 million, a one-year period, an initial spot rate of SF1.4500/$, a 5.036% cost of debt, a 32% tax rate, what is the effective after-tax cost of debt for one year for a U.S. dollar-based company if the exchange rate at the end of the period was: a. SF1.4500/$ b. SF1.4100/S c. SF1.3340/S d. SF1.5630/$ a. If the exchange rate at the end of the period was SF1.4500/$, what is the effective after-tax cost of debt? % (Round to four decimal places.)

Foreign exchange investment involves risks and at the same time returns. Considering you will invest your peso @ P50 = $1 foreign exchange with a fixed interest of 5%, when can you say that you are fully maximized the value of your investment upon maturity? a. Interest and proceeds received in full deposit to a bank account b. Interest received in full with current exchange rate @ P52 = $1 but retained the money in USD while waiting for another investment. c.

Interest received in full with current exchange rate @ 52 = $1 but converted the interest only while waiting for another investment.
