The LBC, imports equipment from HBC in Canada. With the steady decline of the U.S dollar against the Canadian dollar LBC is finding a continued relationship with HBC to be an increasingly difficult proposition. In response to LBC's request, HBC has proposed the following risk-sharing arrangement. First, set the current spot rate as the base rate of C$1.500/?. As long as spot rates stay within 5% (C$1.575/? and C$1.425/?) LBC will pay at the base rate. Any rate outside of the 5% range, HBC will share equally with LBC the difference between the spot rate and the base rate.
