Pricing and Valuation of Forward Contracts and for an Underlying with Varying Maturities Flashcard Deck - 8 Cards

Flashcard 1: What formula determines the no-arbitrage forward currency exchange rate?

Answer: \[\text{Forward} = \text{Spot} \times \frac{1 + \text{Interest Rate}_{\text{price}}}{1 + \text{Interest Rate}_{\text{base}}}\]

Flashcard 2: In derivative pricing, what formula incorporates costs and benefits into the no-arbitrage forward price?

Answer: \[F_0(T) = [S_0 + PV_0(\text{costs}) - PV_0(\text{benefits})] (1 + R_f)^T\]

Flashcard 3: In currency derivatives, what formula determines the no-arbitrage forward exchange rate?

Answer: \[F = S \times \frac{1 + R_{price}}{1 + R_{base}}\] Where \(R_{price}\) is the interest rate of the price currency and \(R_{base}\) is the interest rate of the base currency.

Flashcard 4: In forward contract valuation, what formula calculates the value of the long position at any time \(t\) during the contract's life?

Answer: \[V_t(T) = S_t - F_0(T)(1 + R_f)^{-(T-t)}\] Where \(S_t\) is the spot price at time \(t\) and \(F_0(T)\) is the original forward price.

Flashcard 5: In derivative pricing, what formula calculates the no-arbitrage forward price for an asset with no holding costs or benefits?

Answer: \[F_0(T) = S_0 (1 + R_f)^T\] Where \(S_0\) is the spot price and \(R_f\) is the risk-free rate.

Flashcard 6: What is the typical value of a forward contract to both the buyer and the seller at contract initiation?

Answer: Zero. The price is typically set so the contract has zero value to both parties at initiation.

Flashcard 7: What is the value of a forward contract to both the long and short positions at the exact moment of initiation?

Answer: The value is zero.

Flashcard 8: What formula calculates the no-arbitrage Forward Exchange Rate using the Spot Rate and respective interest rates?

Answer: \[Forward = Spot \times \left( \frac{1 + Interest\_Rate_{price}}{1 + Interest\_Rate_{base}} \right)\]
