Assessment of Prevailing Spot and Forward Rates by the Sports Exports Company

As the Sports Exports Company exports footballs to the United Kingdom, it receives British pounds.The check (denominated in pounds) for last month's exports just arrived.Jim Logan (owner of the Sports Exports Company) normally deposits the check with his local bank and requests that the bank convert the check to dollars at the prevailing spot rate (assuming that he did not use a forward contract to hedge this payment).Logan's local bank provides foreign exchange services for many of its business customers who need to buy or sell widely traded currencies.Today, however, Logan decided to check the quotations of the spot rate at other banks before converting the payment into dollars.
