Small Business Dilemma Hedging Decisions by the Sports Exports Company Jim Logan, owner of the Sports Exports Company, will be receiving about 10,000 British pounds about one month from now as payment for exports produced and sent by his firm. Logan is concerned about his exposure because he believes that there are two possible scenarios: (1) the pound will depreciate by 3 percent over the next month or (2) the pound will appreciate by 2 percent over the next month. There is a 70 percent chance that (1) will occur. There is a 30 percent chance that (2) will occur. Logan notices that the prevailing spot rate of the pound is $1.65, and the one-month forward rate is about $1.645. Logan can purchase a put option over the counter from a securities firm that has an exercise (strike) price of $1.645, a premium of $.025, and an expiration date of one month from now. 1.
