(2) Taking out a dinar-denominated overdraft

【解析】

這個小題我們直接看給出的匯率表就很容易做出判斷。我們用很通俗的方法來判斷這個題。

(dinars per 1):六個月后的匯率高于現(xiàn)在的匯率，也就是說現(xiàn)在借入一美元相當于57.3 dinars,六個月后就是58.4 dinars,而我們只需還57.3dinars，會有結(jié)余，所以對我們有利，所以可以借入dinars規(guī)避風(fēng)險。(€ per 1):三個月后的匯率低于現(xiàn)在的匯率，也就是說現(xiàn)在借入一美元相當于1.544歐元，三個月后一美元只相當于1.532歐元，我們需要還1.544歐元，需要拿出大于一美元的錢，所以對我們是不利的，所以我們不能借入歐元。所以本題選B。
