I am trying to establish what is the nature of the cash flow hedges to determine what is the likely position at the end of the year.
As I had predicted, operating profits were really good, so that was a positive outcome at least.
If KQ wanted to pay off (terminate) the hedges as of 30 Sep 2010, they would have had to pay the 'loss' as shown in the Comprehensive Income...
Of course, this 'deficit' could increase/decrease based on the Fuel prices as these Hedges come due...
