    Total dollar amount received=$590,000

    Option C is correct ($590,000)

    Explanation:

    Given dа ta:

    Exercise Price=$0.61

    Premium Price=$0.02

    Spot Rate=$0.60

    Expected spot rate in 30 days=$.56

    30-day forward rate = $0.62

    Required:

    Total dollar amount received=?

    Solution:

    We have to account for premium:

    Total dollar amount received = (Exercise Price-Premium Price) * SF1,000,000

    Total dollar amount received = ($0.61-$0.02) * SF1,000,000

    Total dollar amount received=$590,000

    Option C is correct ($590,000)

    C) $59000

    Explanation:

    We will use the 30 day forward rate to calculate the amount in dollars and also account for the premium and it is a put option we subtract the premium

    Firstly subtract the premium and put uses the exercise price

    $0.61-$0.02=$0.59

    =SF1000000 * ($0.59)

    =$590000
