| 答案如下 The domestic interest rate is 7 percent and the foreign interest rate is 9 percent. If the forward rate is 5 domestic units/foreign unit, what should the spot exchange rate be? A)5.72. B)5.09. C)4.83. D)4.91
 The correct answer was B) 5.09. Using the following interest rate parity equation:
 ForwardDC/FC=SpotDC/FC * [(1+rdomestic)/(1+rforeign?)]?
 Solving for the spot rate: ?SpotDC/FC = ForwardDC/FC * [(1+rforeign)/(1+rdomestic)]?
 = [(1+.09)/(1+.07)](5)
 = (1.09/1.07)(5)
 = 5.09
