I want some assistance in both these questions:
Problem 1. MLC Audio has decided to issue 3-year bonds denominated in 10 million Singapore dollars. The bonds have a coupon rate of 10%. The Singapore dollar is expected to appreciate from its current level of $.82 to $.80, $.79, and $.78 in years 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Calculate the financing cost (in percent) of these bonds. Show how you derive the answer.
Problem 2. Marcus, Inc., a U.S. company takes out a 1-year loan in Germany. The U.S. 1-year interest rate is 5%, and the German 1-year interest rate is 6%. The spot rate of the euro is $1.33 and the 1-year forward rate is $1.29. Calculate the effective financing rate for Marcus. Show how you derive the answer.
