Hi Sir,
In Q288 regarding Money Market Hedge, I understand the solution but I’m wondering that so in real life, If I’m the Country C company, first step is after signing the contract right away I need to contact a bank in Country C and borrow $166,089 and put it in a saving account for 3 months right? In the question its assumed that it is now 1 April.So 1 April, I take out a loan of $166,089 from a Country C bank and put this amount in a saving account to accrue interest for 3 months. After 3 months this grows to $167,999.
3 months later, 1 July, I will receive 300,000 euro from my Europe customer to my account in my Country C bank right?
Because my loan on 1 April was in dollar, in 1 July when I receive money in euro currency from my customer how can I pay off my loan?
Please help me to understand this by stating the date and step by step so I’ll have the thorough understanding. I really look forward to your reply.
