hi john,
hope u fine. casasophia..ques..currency option part..final bit of answer lets consider for exercise price 1.36,
amount not hedged= 110,000 i agree and got it all except i wana know what if this 110,000 was a surplus amount, overhedged by that amount…the total contract receipt would be 1465000 – premium cost 301435 and that 110,000 surplus would be exchanged on fwd market but what to do with it..deduct it? if so why? please explain
I get what happened in the actual question just wondering wat if it was overhedged by 110000
If we had over-hedged then we would subtract it because we would need to buy $’s in order to have enough $’s to be able to exercise the option.
thxx john 🙂
You are welcome 🙂
my question is that why future contract is not closed out and no gain/loss calculated in future sontracts???
Because the have used the lock-in rate. It will help you if you watch the lecture on this.
