Suppose that a U.S. FI has the following assets and liabilities:

Assets	Liabilities
$500 million U.S. loans (one year) in dollars	$1,000 million U.S. CDs (one year) in dollars
$300 million equivalent U.K. loans (one year) (loans made in pounds)
$200 million equivalent Turkish loans (one year) (loans made in Turkish lira)

The promised one-year U.S. CD rate is 4 percent, to be paid in dollars at the end of the year; the one-year, default riskfree loans are yielding 6 percent in the United States; one-year, default riskfree loans are yielding 8 percent in the United Kingdom; and one-year, default riskfree loans are yielding 10 percent in Turkey. The exchange rate of dollars for pounds at the beginning of the year is $1.3/1, and the exchange rate of dollars for Turkish lira at the beginning of the year is $0.1664/TL1.

1. Calculate the dollar proceeds from the FIs loan portfolio at the end of the year, the return on the FIs loan portfolio, and the net return for the FI if the spot foreign exchange rate has not changed over the year.

2. Calculate the dollar proceeds from the FIs loan portfolio at the end of the year, the return on the FIs loan portfolio, and the net return for the FI if the pound spot foreign exchange rate falls to $1.20/1 and the lira spot foreign exchange rate falls to $0.156/TL1 over the year.

3. Calculate the dollar proceeds from the FIs loan portfolio at the end of the year, the return on the FIs loan portfolio, and the net return for the FI if the pound spot foreign exchange rate rises to $1.40/1 and the lira spot foreign exchange rate rises to $0.17/TL1 over the year.

4. Suppose that instead of funding the $300 million investment in 8 percent British loans with U.S. CDs, the FI manager funds the British loans with $300 million equivalent one-year pound CDs at a rate of 5 percent and that instead of funding the $200 million investment in 10 percent Turkish loans with U.S. CDs, the FI manager funds the Turkish loans with $200 million equivalent one-year Turkish lira CDs at a rate of 6 percent. What will the FIs balance sheet look like after these changes have been made?

5. Using the information in part 4, calculate the return on the FIs loan portfolio, the average cost of funds, and the net return for the FI if the pound spot foreign exchange rate falls to $1.20/1 and the lira spot foreign exchange rate falls to $0.156/TL1 over the year.

6. Using the information in part 4, calculate the return on the FIs loan portfolio, the average cost of funds, and the net return for the FI if the pound spot foreign exchange rate rises to $1.70/1 and the lira spot foreign exchange rate falls to $0.58/TL1 over the year.

7. Suppose that instead of funding the $300 million investment in 8 percent British loans with CDs issued in the United Kingdom, the FI manager hedges the foreign exchange risk on the British loans by immediately selling its expected one-year pound loan proceeds in the forward FX market. The current forward one-year exchange rate between dollars and pounds is $1.25/1. Additionally, instead of funding the $200 million investment in 10 percent Turkish loans with CDs issued in the Turkey, the FI manager hedges the foreign exchange risk on the Turkish loans by immediately selling its expected one-year lira loan proceeds in the forward FX market. The current forward one-year exchange rate between dollars and Turkish lira is $0.165/TL1. Calculate the return on the FIs investment portfolio (including the hedge) and the net return for the FI over the year.
