Sir,
Just need your clarification. Can I assume the Three-month forward rates equal spot rate on transaction date, to estimate the expected futures rate which comes to 0.8657 as follow :
(Jun Futures – Current Spot * 1/4) + 3-month forward rate
(0.8656 – 0.8632 * 1/4) + 0.8651 = 0.8657, which is different from the examiner’s answer.
Thanking you in advance.
Thats fine – the examiners answer does say that you could u se the forward rates.
