NO.PZ201512020800000103 问题如下 3. Baseon Exhibit 3, the potentiall-in USreturn on the carry tra is closest to: A.1.04%. B.1.40%. C.1.84%. A is correct.The carry tra involves borrowing in a lower yielng currento invest in a higher yielng one annetting any profit after allowing for borrowing costs anexchange rate movements. The relevant tra is to borrow USanlenin Euros. To calculate the all-in USreturn from a one-yeEUR Libor posit, first termine the current anone-yelater USEUR exchange rates. Because one USbuys C1.0055 toy, anone Cbuys EUR 0.7218 toy, toy’s EUR/USrate is the proof these two numbers:1.0055 × 0.7218 = 0.7258. The projecterate one yelater is: 1.0006 × 0.7279 = 0.7283. Accorngly, measurein llars, the investment return for the unheeEUR Libor posit is equto:(1.0055 × 0.7218) × (1 + 0.022) × [1/(1.0006 × 0.7279)] –1= 0.7258 × (1.022)(1/0.7283) –1 = 1.0184 – 1 = 1.84%However, the borrowing costs must chargeagainst this gross return to funthe carry tra investment (one-yeUSLibor w0.80%). The net return on the carry tra is thereclosest to: 1.84% – 0.80% = 1.04%.考点Carry tra， 是二级经济必考的一个知识点。解析整体的逻辑就是从利率低的国家借钱投资到利率高的国家，这道题从表格可以看出美国的利率最低，而欧洲的利率最高，因此我们要从美国借钱投资到欧洲，然后再换回美元，再减去美元的资金成本，可以得到all-in return。第一步，我们需要确定即期以及一年之后USEUR的汇率报价，根据表3，利用交叉汇率可得 EUR/USCAUSEUR/CA即期汇率1.0055 × 0.7218 = 0.7258一年后的汇率:1.0006 × 0.7279 = 0.7283接着我们套用 carry tra 的公式，计算得到借美元，投欧元的投资收益(1.0055 × 0.7218) × (1 + 0.022) × [1/(1.0006 × 0.7279)] –1= 0.7258 × (1.022)(1/0.7283) –1 = 1.0184 – 1 = 1.84%注意到，借美元本身也有成本，那就是美元的利息，所以在计算all-in return时需要把这部分利息扣去这部分成本，最终得到1.84% – 0.80% = 1.04%. 为什么不可以（0.7258*1.022）/（0.7283*1.008）-1=1.04% 而且结果居然也是对的
