Your London-based firm expects to receive $50,790,000 in 6 months from a Japanese corporate customer. To hedge the exchange rate risk, your firm enters into a forward agreement at a forward rate of $1.00=$0.0087. Suppose you calculate the gain or loss realized on the forward given a potential future spot exchange rate $1.00=$0.0076. What is the value of the gain or loss? (READ THE NEXT SENTENCE CAREFULLYI). Please note you need to sign your answer carefully, for example, an answer of -5 (i.e., a negative 5) would mean a $5 loss, and an answer of of 5 (l.e., a positive 5) would mean a $5 gain. Round and express your answer to the nearest whole dollar (lie to the nearest ingeter)
