covered interest diffrential (Economics)

What does that mean? Any formula??

1000 $ = 500 BU at Spot
1000 * 1.05 = 1050 $ needs to be repaid.
500 BU - 515 BU at forward - 1081.5 $ at forward.
so 31.5 profit.

Do you know how to calculate the arbitrage profit. I am referring to Q120 in Schweser 2nd exam pm section.
Thanks

he nailed it. If its different, arb exists and you should borrow the cheaper, lend the expensive.

Covered Interest Rate differential means the difference between the domestic interest rate and the hedge foreign rate. It should be zero otherwise arbitrage opportunities exist.
1+rdc = ((1+rfc)(Forward Rate))/ spot rate
