Assume that the current spot rate of the euro before


A firm expects to pay €200,000 in one month for its imports from Greece. It also expects to receive €255,000 for its exports to Italy in one month. The firm estimates the standard deviation of monthly percentage changes of the euro to be 3 percent over the last 40 months. Assume that these percentage changes are normally distributed. Using the value-at-risk (VAR) method based on a 95% confidence level, what is the maximum one-month loss in dollars if the expected percentage change of the euro during next month is -2%? Assume that the current spot rate of the euro (before considering the maximum one-month loss) is $1.25.
