"Derivative"Exercise:Spot exchange rate and forward exchange rate

Questions 1:

There are two forward contracts,contract 1 and contract 2,on the same underlying.The underlying makes no cash payments,does not yield any nonfinancial benefits,and does not incur any storage costs.Contract 1 expires in one year,and contract 2 expires in two years.It is most likely that the price of contract 1:
A、is equal to the price of contract 2.
B、is less than the price of contract 2.
C、exceeds the price of contract 2.
 
【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct.The forward price is the spot price compounded at the risk-free rate over the life of the contract.Because contract 2 has the longer life,compounding will lead to a larger value.
A is incorrect.The price of contract 1 will be less than the price of contract 2.
C is incorrect.The price of contract 1 will be less than the price of contract 2.

Questions 2:

For a forward contract with a value of zero,a situation where the spot price is above the forward price is best explained by high:
A、interest rates.
B、storage costs.
C、convenience yield.
【Answer to question 2】C
【analysis】
C is correct.If the convenience yield is high,holding the underlying confers large benefits,thus the spot price can exceed the forward price for a forward contract with a value of zero.Based on the formula
Derivative exercise:Spot exchange rate and forward exchange rate
and an initial value Vt(0)of zero,large benefitsγexplain why the spot price can exceed the forward price.
A is incorrect.High interest rates make the forward contract more valuable.Thus the forward rate is above the spot rate.
B is incorrect.High storage costs make the forward contract more valuable.Thus the forward rate is above the spot rate.
