In the London market, Rolls-Royce stock closed at £0.875 per share. On the same day, the British Pound sterling to the U. S. dollar spot exchange rate was £0.6366/$1.00. Rolls Royce trades as an ADR in the OTC market in the United States. Five underlying Rolls-Royce shares are packaged into one ADR. If the Rolls Royce ADRs were trading at $5.75 when the underlying shares were trading in London at £0.875, ignoring transaction costs, the arbitrage trading profit would be A. $0.00. B. $1.12. C. $2.12. D. $3.12.

B. $1.12

Explanation:

The computation of arbitrage trading profit is shown below:-

Euro Share price = £0.875

Spot rate R = £0.6366/$1.00

1 ADR Share price in US = $5.75

1 ADR = 5 share of shares

Now, The actual price of 1 ADR P1 = 5 × Euro Share price ÷  Share price in US

= 5 × £0.875 ÷ £0.6366

= $6.87

Therefore, The  Arbitrage profit = Actual price - trading price

= Actual price - Price in US

= $6.87 - $5.75

= $1.12

Therefore for computing the arbitrage trading profit we simply applied the above formula.
