1. Stetson Bank quotes a bid rate of $ 0.784 for the Australian dollar and an ask rate of $
0.80. What is the bid/ask percentage spread?
- Stetson bank quotes a bid rate of $ 0.784 for the australiab dollar and an ask rate of $ 0.80
Hence, bid/ask spread : Ask rate – Bid rate
Hence, bid/ask spread : 0.800 – 0.784 = 0.016

Now, bid/ask percentage spread : spread/ask rate


Bid/ask percentage spread : 0.016/0.800 = 0.02 or 2%

2. Fullerton Bank quotes an ask rate of $ 0.190 for the Peruvian currency (new sol) and
a bid rate of $ 0.188. Determine the bid/ask percentage spread?
