问题如下:
Nick and Joy are two dealers in America. A research report produced by Nick includes the following exhibit:
If Joy is quoting the USD/GBP cross-rate at 1.4210. Which of the following options is most accurate of the arbitrage profit?
选项:
A.USD 32,000 per million GBP traded.
B.GBP 29,000 per million USD traded.
C.USD 29,000 per million GBP traded.
解释:
C is correct.
The USD/GBP cross-rate from Nick is (8.8318/6.3449) = 1.3920, which is lower than 1.4210 . To earn an arbitrage profit, a currency trader would buy GBP use 1.3920 and sell GBP use 1.4210, So the profit would be
GBP 1,000,000 × (1.4210 – 1.3920) = USD 29,000
考点: cross-rate
解析:
美元/英镑汇率为(8.8318/6.3449)= 1.3920,低于1.4210。为了获得套利利润,货币交易员会以1.3920的价格买进英镑,以1.4210卖出英镑,所以利润是
1000000英镑*(1.4210 - 1.3920)= 29000美元
想问一下套利利润这个知识点是这一章的内容吗?在哪里出现的呀?谢谢老师
