A Japanese investor can earn a 1 percent annual interest rate in Japan or about 4.1 percent per year in the United States. If the spot exchange rate is 101 yen to the dollar, at what one-year forward rate would an investor be indifferent between the U. S. and Japanese investments? a. 95.99 b. 96.99 c. 97.99 d 98.99 e. 99.99 f. 100.99 g. 101.99 h. 102.99 yens per dollar

97.99

Explanation:

The one-year forward rate that an investor would be indifferent between the U.S. and Japanese investments will be:

= Spot rate × (1 + Japanese rate / 1 + U.S rate)

= 101 × (1 + 1% / 1 + 4.1%)

= 101 × [(1 + 0.01) / (1 + 0.041)]

= 101 × (1.01/1.041)

= 101 × 0.9702209

= 97.99
