    Tell me if I am right:
    -in Currency futures/option while we borrow we generally choose strategy Put Option, Sell now Buy later when contracts Size is in Home currency. But if Contract size in foreign currency the Strategy will be opposite as mention above. for borrow, we will choose Call option and for futures, we will Buy now and sell later.

    Secondly ,

    Lurgshall Co Counterparty Interest rate differential
    Fixed-rate 5·60% 6·10% 0·50%
    Floating rate LIBOR + 0·50% LIBOR + 1·50% 1·00%
    Lurgshall Co has an advantage in borrowing at both fixed and floating rates, but the floating rate advantage is larger.
    Bank Charges 10 Basis Each
    Gain % for Lurgshall Co = 50% (1 – 0·5 – 0·2) = 0·15

    My question is that,
    Total Differential is 1.5% from which 0.2% bank charges
    rest is shared equally .065 each but answer is different why
    How he is calculating the benefit
