Summary Introduction

To determine: The risk-free rate.

Introduction:

The reward-to-risk ratio indicates the return of a risky asset relative to its beta. The difference between the expected return on a risky asset and the risk-free rate divided by the beta coefficient of the security will give the reward-to-risk ratio of a security.

Suppose that you are a U.S.-based importer of goods from the United Kingdom. You expect the value of the pound to increase against the U.S. dollar over the next 30 days. You will be making payment on a shipment of imported goods in 30 days and want to hedge your currency exposure. The U.S. risk-free rate is 5.5 percent, and the U.K. risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. These rates are expected to remain unchanged over the next month. The current spot rate is $1.90.  1.Move forward 10 days. The spot rate is $1.93. Interest rates are unchanged. Calculate the value of your forward position. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.
