Elan Pharmaceuticals. Elan Pharmaceuticals, a U.S.-based multinational pharmaceutical company, is evaluating an export sale of its cholesterol-reduction drug with a prospective Indonesian distributor. The purchase would be for 1,610 million Indonesian ruplah ( Rp), which at the current spot exchange rate of Rp9,420/S, translates into $170,912.95. Although not a big sale by company standards, company policy dictates that sales must be settled for at least a minimum gross margin, in this case, a cash settlement of $164,000. The current 90 -day forward rate is Rp9,900/\$. Although this rate appeared unattractive, Elan had to contact several major banks before even finding a forward quote on the rupiah. The consensus of currency forecasters at the moment, however, is that the rupiah will. continue to strengthen, possibly rising to Rp10,230/\$ over the coming 90 to 120 days.
