Consider a long forward contract to purchase a coupon-bearing bond whose current price is $910. We will suppose that the forward contract matures in 9 months. We will also suppose that a coupon payment of $45 is expected after 4 months. We assume that the 4-month and 9-month risk-free interest rates (continuously compounded) are, respectively, 3% and 4% per annum. Explain how an arbitrageur can make profits from this scenario.
