On November 10, 2018, King Co. sold inventory to a customer in a foreign country. King agreed to accept 96,000 local currency units (LCU) in full payment for this inventory. Payment was to be made on February 1, 2019. On December 1, 2018, King entered into a forward exchange contract wherein 96,000 LCU would be delivered to a currency broker in two months. The two month forward exchange rate on that date was 1 LCU = $.30. Any contract discount or premium is amortized using the straight-line method. The spot rates and forward rates on various dates were as follows:

Date Rate Description Exchange Rate

November 10, 2018 Spot rate: $.35 = 1 LCU

December 1, 2018 Spot rate: $.32 = 1 LCU

2-Month Forward Rate $.30 = 1 LCU

December 31, 2018 Spot rate: $.29 = 1 LCU

1-Month Forward Rate $.28 = 1 LCU

February 1, 2019 Spot rate: $.27 = 1 LCU

The company's borrowing rate is 12%. The present value factor for one month is .9901.
