Suppose you are a speculator from France. You observe the following 1-year interest rates, spot exchange rates and forward prices. Forward contract sizes are $10,000 each. Exchange rate €0.6500 = $1.00 €0.6731 = $1.00 Interest rate APR So(€/S) is 3% F3so(€/S) 4% Assume you did your own calculation of the forward price based on interest rate parity (IRP). It shows that an arbitrage opportunity exists because the forward price that you calculated is: F3so(€/S) of €0.6563 = $1.00. What actions will you take to make use of the arbitrage opportunity and what will your profit be? Page 1 of 5 а. €167.89. b. €240.24. C. $70.29. d. $43.08. е. None of the above.

If the exchange rate at time t is Et = €1/$. You invest $1 in an euro asset at t, which has an interest of 8%. When the asset expires at t+1, you get paid € (x.xx round to two decimal places). If dollar appreciates by 2 % against euro, that is, Et+1 /$(x.xx round to two decimal places), then you can buy back $ (x.xx round UP to two decimal places).
