underlying rate-modfied value is (1.27 x 100) = 127. The
option is in the money. The exercise settlement value of
the option is (127 - 125)
$100 = $200.
Do not confuse the rate-modifier with the multiplier.
They serve different purposes and may or may not have
the same numeric value.
EXAMPLE: Assume that the exchange rate underly-
ing a rate-modified call option on the exchange rate
between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso is stated
as Mexican pesos per U.S. dollar (USD/MXN). The
rate-modifier could be 10 and the multiplier could be
$100. If the exercise price of the option is 11 Mexican
pesos per U.S. dollar, it is stated as 11 x 10 = 110. If the
underlying exchange rate is 11.2 at the time the option is
exercised, the exercise settlement value is (112 -
110) x $100 = $200.
Note that, as in the case of index options, the multi-
plier determines the cash value of an option that is in the
money by a specified amount. Uke Index options, and
unlike
other
cash-settled
currency
options,
a
rate-modified currency option has no unit of trading—It
does not relate to a specified quantity of an underlying
currency.
The multiplier is also used in determining the total
premium for a rate-modified currency option. For exam-
ple. if a premium is quoted as .50 and the multiplier is
$100. the total premium for a single option is $50.
