1. A currency dealer has good credit and can borrow either $1,000,000 or €800,000 for one year. The one-year inflation rate in the U.S. is π$ = 2.5% and in the euro zone the one-year inflation rate is π€ = 5.5%. The one-year forward exchange rate is $1.20 = €1.00; what must the spot rate be to eliminate arbitrage opportunities? $1.1547 = €1.00 $1.2351 = €1.00 $1.2471 = €1.00 $1.0200 = €1.00

2. Suppose the futures price is below the price predicted by CIP. What steps would be necessary to follow in order to assure an arbitrage profit?
