Problem 1: Assume that Boeing limited is interested to use 'leading and lagging' as one of its strategic choices to hedge its transaction exposure. Which one of the following situation(s) represents the limit to the use of such a strategy?

a. At least two of the other three situations.
b. To the extent the original invoice price incorporated the expected depreciation of the pound, Boeing is already partially protected against the depreciation of the pound.
c. If Boeing pushes customers like British Airways to prepay, it may hurt future sales efforts by Boeing.
d. If we assume Boeing limited would like its customer British Airways to prepay £100 million, we can also assume British Airways would have no incentive to do so unless it received a substantial discount to compensate for prepayment.
