问题如下:
BBQ firm is an American company and exports steel to a firm which is in England. Assume BBQ receives the payment of 3,600,000 GBP now. The spot exchange rate is 1.5500 USD/GBP for bid and 1.5505 for ask. BBQ wants to change these pounds into dollars in the exchange market immediately, how much USD it will receive:
选项:
A.5, 674,320 USD
B.5, 580,000 USD
C.2, 322,581 USD
解释:
B is correct.
考点: Spot rates and forward rates以及bid-offer spread
解析: 题目中说道BBQ公司立刻在外汇市场上将3,600,000 GBP转化为USD,那么就应当使用外汇市场上两种货币间的spot rate。并且BBQ在是要卖出GBP,那么就应该使用市场上做市商的买价格(Bid)。所以3,600,000 GBP×1.550 USD/GBP=5,580,000USD.
