Hello,
When we are hedging the $84m borrowing, we have exercised the option to take advantage of the favourable strike of 95.25 over the expected futures price of 94.81.
However, why does this result in a loss? I thought that this would give a gain of $184,800 because we are taking advantage of a favourable strike. Why would we exercise the option to give a loss?!
Thanks
Sorry – ignore the above. It is a gain!
Correct 🙂
