During the currency crisis of September 1992, the Bank of England borrowed DM 33 billion from the Bundesbank when a pound was worth DM 2.78 or $1.912. It sold these foreign exchange market for pounds in a futile attempt to prevent a devaluation of the pound. It repaid these DM at the post-crisis rate of DM 2.50-£1. By then, the dollar/pound exchange rate was $1.782-1. What were the cost of intervention to the Bank of England in DM in the pounds and in dollars, respectively?
