问题如下:
If the net cost of carry of an asset is positive, then the price of a forward contract on that asset is most likely:
选项:
A.lower than if the net cost of carry was zero.
B.the same as if the net cost of carry was zero.
C.higher than if the net cost of carry was zero.
解释:
A is correct.
An asset’s forward price is increased by the future value of any costs and decreased by the future value of any benefits: . If the net cost of carry (benefits less costs) is positive, the forward price is lower than if the net cost of carry was zero.
中文解析:
下图中红色线框出来的部分即为net cost of carry,是作为减项存在的,所以当net cost of carry为正的时候,FP会降低。
需要考虑这个forward是long还是short么?还是说两者结果都一样?
