S&S Air Goes International
Mark Sexton and Todd Story, the owners of S&S Air, have been in discussions with an aircraft dealer in Europe about selling the company’s Eagle airplane. The Eagle sells for $98,000 and has a variable cost of $81,000 per airplane. Amalie Diefenbaker, the dealer, wants to add the Eagle to her current retail line. Amalie has told Mark and Todd that she feels she will be able to sell 15 airplanes per month in Europe. All sales will be made in euros, and Amalie will pay the company €75,384 for each plane. Amalie proposes that she order 15 aircraft today for the first month’s sales. She will pay for all 15 aircraft in 90 days. This order and payment schedule will continue each month.
Mark and Todd are confident they can handle the extra volume with their existing facilities, but they are unsure about the potential financial risks of selling their aircraft in Europe. In their discussion with Amalie, they found out that the current exchange rate is $1.30/€. This means that they can convert the €75,384 per airplane paid by Amalie to $98,000. Thus, the profit on the international sales is the same as the profit on dollar-denominated sales.
Mark and Todd decided to ask Chris Guthrie, their financial analyst, to prepare an analysis of the proposed international sales. Specifically, they ask Chris to answer the following questions.
5. Taking all factors into account, should the company pursue the international sales deal further? Why or why not?

- Use the binomial method to determine the value of an American Put option at time t = 0. The option expires at time t = T = 1/2 and has exercise price E = 55. The current value of the underlying is S(0) = 50 with the underlying paying continuous dividends at the rate D = 0.05. The interest rate is r = 0.3. Use a time step of St = 1/6.
