7 Would any of the hedges you compared in question (3)

for the British pounds to be received in 90 days require Aussie Blades to overhedge? Given Aussie Blades’

exporting arrangements, do you think it is subject to overhedging with a money market hedge?

Aussie Blades, Pty Ltd has recently decided to expand its international trade relationship by exporting to the United Kingdom. Jogs Ltd, a British retailer, has committed itself to the annual purchase of 200,000 pairs of Speedos, Aussie Blades’ primary product, for the price of £80 per pair. The agreement is to last for two years, at which time it may be renewed by Aussie Blades and Jogs.

In addition to this new international trade relationship, Aussie Blades continues to export to Thailand. Its primary customer there, a retailer called Rolling Products, is committed to the purchase of 180,000 pairs of Speedos annually for another three years at a fixed price of 4594 Thai baht per pair. When the agreement terminates, it may be renewed by Aussie Blades and Rolling Products.
