Suppose a U.S. firm buys $200,000 worth of television tubes from a Mexican manufacturer for delivery in 60 days with payment to be made in 90 days ( 30 days after the goods are received). The rising U.S. deficit has caused the doliar to depreciate against the peso recently. The current exchange rate is 5.69 pesos per U.S. dollar. The 90 -day forward rate is 5.45 peso5/dollar. The firm Boes into the forward market today and buys enough Mexican pesos at the 90-day forward rate to completely cqver its trade obligation. Assume the spot rate in 90 days is 5.30 Mexican pesos per U.S. dollar. How much in U.S. dollars did the firm save by eliminating its foreign exchange currency risk with its forward market hedge? Do not round the intermediate calculations and round the final answer to the nearest cent. $5,900.64 55.02320 $6.4603 1490500 57,150.67
