Based on the bid quote given on the Canadian dollar, and the bid-ask spread, the ask rate would be $1.15.

What is the ask rate?

When given the bid-ask spread and the bid quote, the ask rate is:

= Bid quote x ( 1 + bid-ask spread)

Solving gives:

= 1.1448 x (1 + 0.5%)

= 1.1448 x 1.005

= 1.150524

= $1.15 2 d.p.
