1. Based upon Exhibit 1, the forward premium (discount) for a 360-day INR/GBP forward contract is closest to:
选项:
A.–1.546.
B.1.546
C.1.576
解释:
C is correct.
The equation to calculate the forward premium (discount) is:
Ff/d−Sfld=Sf/d(1+id[360Actual][360Actual])(if−id)
Sf/d is the spot rate with GBP the base currency or d, and INR the foreign currency or <em>f</em>.Sf/d per Exhibit 1 is 79.5093, i f is equal to 7.52% and i d is equal to 5.43%.
With GBP as the base currency (i.e. the “domestic” currency) in the INR/GBP quote, substituting in the relevant base currency values from Exhibit 1 yields the following:
Ff/d−Sf/d=79.5093(1+0.0543[360360][360360])(0.0752−0.0543)
Ff/d−Sf/d=79.5093(1.05431)(0.0752−0.0543)
Ff/d−Sf/d=1.576
考点 : 利率平价公式的计算.
解析 : Covered IRP:
Ff/d−Sfld=Sf/d(1+id[360Actual][360Actual])(if−id)
其中,GBP代表的是本币,而INR代表的是外币,于是直接代入数字到上述公式中可得:
Ff/d−Sf/d=79.5093(1+0.0543[360360][360360])(0.0752−0.0543)
Ff/d−Sf/d=79.5093(1.05431)(0.0752−0.0543)
Ff/d−Sf/d=1.576
Using the crude oil futures prices in Exhibit 1, who would most likelyaccount for the lowest roll return until March?C
A. An airline hedging fuel costs
B. The QA Energy Commodities Fund
C. A crude oil producer hedging production
A crude oil producer would be short futures to hedge the risk of future falling prices. For example, falling prices would decrease future sales and income. Crude oil futures are in backwardation, causing successive futures contracts to be sold at lower prices and causing roll yield to be negative.Introduction to Commodities and Commodity Der
