Mauna Loa Macademia. Mauna Loa Macadamia, a macadamia nut subsidiary of Hershey's with plantations on the slopes of its namesake volcano in Hilo, Hawaii, exports macadamia nuts worldwide. The Japanese market is its biggest export market, with average annual sales invoiced in yen to Japanese customers of 1,200,000,000 yen. At the present exchange rate of 125/, this is the equivalent to $9,600,000. Sales are relatively equally distributed throughout the year. They show up as a 250,000,000 yenaccount receivable on Mauna Loa's balance sheet. Credit terms to each customer allow for 60 days before payment is due. Monthly cash collections are typically 100,000,000 yen. Mauna Loa would like to hedge its yen receipts but it has too many customers and transactions to make it practical to sell each receivable forward, it does not want to use options because they are considered to be too expensive for this particular purpose. Therefore they have decided to use a "matching" hedge by borrowing yen.
