Assume you import 1 million Euro of computer from Europe from France and you have to make the payment in Euro and pay in September. To hedge against rate uncertainty, you can buy a September option (Euro option has a fixed amount, 125,000 Euro per contract). You would like to have a strike price $1.31 per Euro and the option price is $2500 per contract.
Will you buy the option?
If you buy the option, on the maturity date, the spot rate is $1.34 per Euro, will you exercise the option or use the spot transaction?
If on the maturity date, the spot rate is $1.29 per Euro, will you exercise the option? Please explain.
