7. Consider a U.S.-based company that exports goods to Switzerland. The U.S. com- pany expects to receive payment on a shipment of goods in three months. Because the payment will be in Swiss francs, the U.S. company wants to hedge against a decline in the value of the Swiss franc over the next three months. The U.S. risk- free rate is 2 percent, and the Swiss risk-free rate is 5 percents. Assume that inter- est rates are expected to remain fixed over the next six months. The current spot rate is $0.5974. a. Indicate whether the U.S. company should use a long or short forward contract to hedge currency risk. b. Calculate the no-arbitrage price at which the U.S. company could enter into a forward contract that expires in three months. c. It is now 30 days since the U.S. company entered into the forward contract. The spot rate is $0.55. Interest rates are the same as before. Calculate the value of the U.S. company's forward position
