Trаnsаctiоn Expоsure Prоblem: Suppose thаt you (i.e., company XYZ) are a US-based importer of goods from Canada. You expect the value of the Canada dollar to increase against the US dollar over the next 6 months. You will be making payment on a shipment of imported goods (CAD100,000) in 6 months and want to hedge your currency exposure. The US risk-free rate is 5% and the Canada risk-free rate is 4% per year. The current spot rate is $1.25/CAD, and the 6-month forward rate is $1.3/CAD. You can also buy a 6-month option on Canadian dollars at the strike price of $1.4 /CAD for a premium of $0.10/CAD. If XYZ enters a forward contract today, the guaranteed dollar cost for this CAD obligation today (not in six months) should be $ [l1] . (please leave two decimal points for your answer. Example: 123.23)
