The European customers are invoiced in euros, while the customers i In the USA and Asia are invoiced in U.S. dollars. Since 80% of the total sales are invoiced in U.S. dollars, Mr. Hari, the Chief Executive Officer of Ram Hosiery, is concerned about the movement of the Ind ian rupee against the U.S. dollar. His assistant has looked at the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Indian rupee for the period from September 2008 to February 2009 and found that it has been highly volatile. Mr. Hari is aware that the exchange rate has been fluctuating, and he needs to have an estimate of his revenue in rupees when he receives it in U.S. dollar s. This will aid him in preparing his cash flow statement and also help him to finance his short-term needs. He has heard about the forward contracts that he can enter into with banks. He also aware that currency futures have been introduced in Indian exchanges. However, he is not sure about the procedure that is to be followed.
