Market conditions are as follows; Exchange rate is USD 1 = JPY 130.00. USD market interest rate is 10% p.a. during the contract period, and JPY market interest rate is 6% p.a. during the contract period. The scheduled 'currency coupon' swap contract is as follows; the assumed principle amount is USD 100 million (JPY 13,000 million). Swap contract period is 2 years. You will pay 6.3 % in USD currency at the end of each year, and receive 6% in JPY currency at the end of each year. Calculate the NPV in JPY currency, using the original exchange rate of USD 1 = JPY 130.00.

Current USD Interest rates are 7% per annum and AUD rates are 9% per annum, flat for all terms. Current value of AUD is 0.62 USD. Under a FX swap agreement, a financial institution pays 8% per annum in AUD and receives 4% per annum in USD. Notional principals are 12 Million USD and 20 Million AUD.

Question 2 In 6-month from today, a U.S. based company will receive 2,000,000 Australian dollars (AUD) and the company wants to hedge the exchange rate risk. The expected AUD spot rate in 6-month will either appreciate by 5% (p.a) with 40% probability or depreciate by 10% (p.a.) with 60% probability. All rates are continuous compounding (please round your answers to 4 decimals in the exchange rate calculations). As the financial manager of the company, you look at Bloomberg and collect the following information: • U.S. interest rate: . . 4% p.a. 5% p.a. 1 AUD=0.63 USD Spot rate: Call option premium 0.03 USD, with exercise exchange rate 1 AUD-0.65 USD and 6-month maturity Put option premium 0.02 USD, with exercise exchange rate 1 AUD-0.64 USD and 6-month maturity Australian interest rate: 1) Calculate the 6-month forward exchange rate, describe how a forward agreement can be used to hedge the receivable money, and calculate the resulting amount of USD in 6 months.

Suppose you are a speculator from France. You observe the following 1-year interest rates, spot exchange rates and forward prices. Forward contract sizes are $10,000 each. Exchange rate €0.6500 = $1.00 €0.6731 = $1.00 Interest rate APR So(€/S) is 3% F3so(€/S) 4% Assume you did your own calculation of the forward price based on interest rate parity (IRP). It shows that an arbitrage opportunity exists because the forward price that you calculated is: F3so(€/S) of €0.6563 = $1.00. What actions will you take to make use of the arbitrage opportunity and what will your profit be? Page 1 of 5 а. €167.89. b. €240.24. C. $70.29. d. $43.08. е. None of the above.

Suppose the current USD/euro exchange rate is 1.2000 dollars per euro. The six-month forward exchange rate is 1.1950. The six-month USD interest rate is 1% per annum continuously compounded. Estimate the six-month euro interest rate. I am using this formula F=S*e^(rs-rs)*t 1.1950=1.2*e^(0.01-rf)*0.5 (Its for a Derivatives class, am I right?)
