1. Suppose that the current exchange rate is 0.80 = $1.00. The direct quote, from the U.S. perspective is ..
2. Suppose that the current exchange rate is 1.00 = $1.60. The indirect quote, from the U.S. perspective is:
3. The AUD/$ spot exchange rate is AUD1.60/$ and the SF/$ is SF1.25/$. The AUD/SF cross exchange rate is:
4. The euro-yen cross exchange rate can be computed as: (choose the correct answer(s)) ***it says choose the correct answer(s). So, there may be more than 1 correct answer.***
- S(/Y) = S($/Y) S(/$)
- S(/Y) = S($/Y) / S($/)
- S(/Y) = S(/$) / S(Y/$)
5. Suppose a bank customer with 1,000,000 wishes to trade out of euro and into Japanese yen. The dollar-euro exchange rate is quoted as $1.60 = 1.00 and the dollar-yen exchange rate is quoted at $1.00 = Y120. How many yen will the customer get? **There are two ways to solve it. You can either convert 1 mil euros to dollar (1 euro = 1.6 dollars) first and then convert those dollars to yen ($1=Y120). The second way is finding the Y/Euro rate (find that cross rate) and then multiply it by 1 mil.**
