An FI has purchased (borrowed) a one-year $10 million Eurodollar deposit at an annual interest rate of 6 percent. It has invested these proceeds in one-year Euro (€) bonds at an annual rate of 6.5 percent after converting them at the current spot rate of €1.75/$. Both interest and principal are paid at the end of the year.

Assume that instead of investing in Euro bonds at a fixed rate of 6.5 percent, it invests them in variable rates of LIBOR + 1.5 percent, reset every six months. The current LIBOR rate is 5 percent. What is the annual spread earned by the bank if LIBOR at the end of six months is 5.5 percent? Assume both interest and principal will be reinvested in six months. Assume the exchange rate remains at €1.75/$ at the end of the year.
