Bobcat Company, US-based manufacturer of industrial equipment, just purchased a Korean company that produces plastic nuts and bolts for heaby equipment. The purchase price was Won 7,500 million. Won 1,000 million has already been paid, and the remaining Won 6,500 million is due in six months. The current spot rate is Won 1,110/$, and the 6-month forward rate is Won 1,175/$.
