obviously, Shrewsbury could ensure that it receives exactly 320,000ปอน at the end of three-month accounts receivable period if it could invoice ปอน. That, however, is not acceptable to the French wholesaler. When invoicing in euros, Shrewsbury could establish the euro invoice amount by use of the forward exchange rate instead of the current spot rate. The invoice amount in that case would be 461,984ปอน= 320.000ปอน x 1.4437. Shrewsbury can now lock-in a receipt of 320,000ปอน if it simultaneously hedges its euro exposure by selling 461,984ยูโร at the forward rate of 1.4437. That is 320,000ปอน=461.984ยูโร/1.4437
