This is the spot price in dollars of 1 dinar (a foreign currency). ry = 4% p.a. This is the interest rate in dinars. (a continuously-compounded rate using a 365 day year). F(0,7) = $10.30. This is the forward price in dollars for delivery of 1 dinar 200 days from now (time T"). (a) Show how synthetic lending in dollars over 200 days can be obtained.
