瑞士的本国货币不是欧元吗

问题如下：

Q. An executive from Switzerland checks into a hotel room in Spain and is told by the manager that EUR1 will buy CHF1.2983. From the executive’s perspective, an indirect exchange rate quote would be:

选项：

A.EUR0.7702 per CHF1. B.CHF0.7702 per EUR1. C.EUR1.2983 per CHF1.

解释：

A is correct. An indirect quote takes the foreign country as the price currency and the domestic country as the base currency. To get Swiss francs—which is the executive’s domestic currency—as the base currency, the quote must be stated as EUR/CHF. Using the manager’s information, the indirect exchange rate is (1/1.2983) = 0.7702.
