Euro rate this year

Does anybody know where I can find the details on what the exchange rate of the Euro has been from Jan - Apr this year.

I have received a bunch of invoices from HQ (Germany) and need to check that the single Exchange rate they have applied isn''t doing my business out of any money.....

Try these people, more data than you can shake a stick at:
http://www.hifx.co.uk/marke****ch/cu...ical_data.aspx
(tis a flash page, change "instrument" to select currencies to compare and "timescales" to look further to the past, goes back to 1994)

Actually, I managed to find something on XE.COM, they have "free" charts where you can put in the time base (6 months, daily) and the two currencies.

Gave me what I was looking for....

Just in case you get a difference in what you think it should be and what theyve used you need to bear in mind they dont have to use the daily rates of exchange.

For example, if you were invoicing them you could chose to use the rate for that day OR you could chose to use the rate provided by HM Revenue & Customs for the month.

Provided they can show where the rate of exchange comes from and its either the treasury supplied rate or the daily rate they are legally entitled to use whichever one suits them.

Thanks Lyn,

I managed to sort this PM, I just used the rates to push down the charges a bit. Getting to the 6 month point where I expect a cash injection from the parent, but I need to make the funds last a little longer
