- Suppose that the 90-day forward rate is $1.17/€, the current spot rate is S1.20/€, and you expect the future spot rate in 90 days to be S1.21/€.

- Suppose a European call option to buy 1 euro for 1.40 CAD costs 0.08 CAD. The option maturity is in two months and the forward exchange rate for the same maturity is 1.50 CAD per euro. What arbitrage opportunity exists? Explain how you can exploit this opportunity and how much the profit is. (Ignore the time value of money)Suppose that the exchange rate is $0.92/Euro.
