This requirement is a standard interest rate parity (IRP) application from CIMA F3 foreign exchange management. Where the spot rate is quoted as foreign currency per unit of home currency (here, A$ per PS, since 1 PS = 5 A$), CIMA F3 applies the parity relationship to forecast the exchange rate over the period using relative money-market interest rates. The forward/forecast rate is derived as:

Given:

p.a. (home deposits)

p.a. (foreign deposits)

PPP will receive A$5,000,000 in 3 months; converting at the forecast rate:

Rounded to the nearest thousand PS:

 A. The shareholder can choose whether to take the cash or not.

With a repurchase, shareholders can decide to sell (take cash) or keep their shares. A one-off dividend forces all shareholders to receive cash.

 C. It means that the company will be able to pay lower total dividends in the future.

After a buyback there are fewer shares in issue. If the company keeps the same dividend per share, the total dividend outlay falls – good for future cash flow and flexibility.

 E. It will not create an expectation for future increased dividends.

A large one-off dividend may be interpreted as a permanent increase, creating pressure to maintain higher payouts. A buyback is seen as a more one-off, discretionary event, so it avoids that expectation.

 B is wrong: a repurchase reduces, not increases, shares in issue.

 D is not an advantage relative to a dividend – both methods return cash that shareholders can spend as they wish.
