You purchase a put option contract on Singapore dollars. Each contract represents S$45,000, with a strike price of $0.77 and an option premium of $0.03 per unit. Suppose that the spot price of the Singapore dollar is $0.73 just before the expiration of the put option contract. At this time, you exercise the option, while also purchasing S$45,000 in the spot market at the current spot rate.
