Accounting for foreign exchange derivatives is guided by AS 11 (Revised 2003). The ICAI has also issued a Guidance Note dealing with the accounting procedures to be adopted while accounting for Equity Index Options and Equity Stock Options (b) Currency Options give the client the right, but not the obligation, to buy/sell a specific amount of currency at a specific price on a specific date. Currency options provide a tool for hedging foreign exchange risk arising out of the firm's operations. Currency options enable the business house to remove downside risk without limiting the upride potential. Options can be put option or call option. A put option is a contract that specifies the currency that the holder has the right to sell. A call option is a contract that specifies the currency that the holder has the right to buy. (c) Interest rate swap can be defined as a financial contract between two parties (called counter parties) to exchange on a particular date in the future, one series of cash flows (fixed interest) for another series of cash flows (variable or floating interest) in the same currency on the same principal (an agreed amount called notional principal) for an agreed period of time. The contract will specify the interest rates, the benchmark rate to be followed, the notional principal amount for he transaction, etc. Interest rates are of two types, fixed interest rates and floating rates which vary according to changes in a standard benchmark interest rate. An investor holding a security which pays a floating interest rate is exposed to interest rate risk. The investor can manage this risk by entering into an interest rate swap. 2.
