The following exchange rates apply:

B. $6,000 negative.
C. $10,000 positive.
D. $10,000 negative.
E. $14,000 positive.

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. $10,000 positive.

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be included is shown below:

= (Option strike price - spot rate) × purchased put options

= ($2.17 - $2.13) × 250,000

= $10,000

As the spot rate is less than the strike price so automatically there is a gain of $10,000

Hence, the option c is correct
