Q. The JPY/AUD spot exchange rate is 82.42, the Japanese yen interest rate is 0.15 percent, and the Australian dollar interest rate is 4.95 percent. If the interest rates are quoted on the basis of a 360-day year, the 90-day forward points in JPY/AUD would be closest to:选项:
A.–377.0.B.–97.7. C.98.9.
解释:

The forward points are as follows:
100 × (F × S) = 100 × (81.443 – 82.42) = 100 × (–0.977) = –97.7.Because the spot exchange rate is quoted with two decimal places, the forward points are scaled by 100.
