Your company will require 1 million British pounds (GBP) sterling 2 months from now.

The spot exchange rate has a volatility of 18percent, the continuously compounding CAD interest rate is 3percent, while the British rate is 2percent. If the minimum that you would pay for the 1 million pounds is 0.30 million CAD less than today's price, what is the maximum that you would pay?
