At the time of sale, the spot rate of exchange is US$0.55, that is, NZ$1 buys US$0.55. Honey Ltd wishes to hedge the currency risk associated with this transaction, so on the day of the sale, the company buys a put option that is, it buys the right to sell US$150,000 at an exercise price of US$0.57 one month later. The option costs $3,000 in cash. The relevant information is shown in the table below:

	spot rate	Option value
At the date of sale	0.55	$3,000
One month late (i.e., at settlement)	0.62

Required:

(ii) What is the most that Honey Ltd can lose overall in this hedging activity (regardless of what the exchange rate is at settlement date)? Show all workings.
