Suppose the exchange rate is 90 yen per U.S. dollar and the United States wants to keep the exchange rate at a target rate of 90

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Option A, buys dollars to raise the exchange rate, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Option A is correct because when the Fed will buy the dollars then only the demand for dollars will shift rightwards. Consequently, the dollar price or exchange rate will go up. Therefore, the Fed will buy the dollars to increase the exchange rate. In another case, if the Fed wants to decrease the exchange rate then it will sell the dollars, and selling of dollars will shift the supply rightwards. Thus, the exchange rate will fall.

What does it mean to say that a currency appreciates? depreciates? becomes stronger? becomes weaker?

erik [133]

When a currency appreciates, it means it increased in value relative to another currency; Depreciates means depreciation or depreciation relative to other currencies. It is often said that the dollar is strong when it is bought by equal or greater value in another currency. If the purchase amount is less than the equivalent, it is weak.

An example of a currency would be the US banknotes you have on hand. It is one of the coins issued by the United States, along with pennies, nickels and quarters. Currencies are also banknotes and coins issued by governments of other countries around the world.

Currency is anything of general value as a medium of exchange that can be exchanged for goods and services. The trading system within an economy is based on a currency, usually country-specific and issued by that country's government.

Double entry, a fundamental concept underlying present-day bookkeeping and accounting, states that every financial transaction has equal and opposite effects in at least two different accounts. It is used to satisfy the accounting equation:

Assets
=
Liabilities
+
Equity

Assets=Liabilities+Equity

With a double entry system, credits are offset by debits in a general ledger or T-account.

So debit is the answer

Variable selling exp. (w1.) (38,800) (124,000) (162,800)

Contribution margin 471,200 1,346,000 1,817,200

Direct fixed overhead (160,000) (200,000) (360,000)

Direct fixed S $ Admn exp. (146,000) (87,000) (233,000)

Segment margin 165,200 1,059,000 1,224,200

Workings:

w1. Variable selling expenses = Sales * Commission percentage

Poinsettias = $970,000 * 4% = $38,8000

Fruit Trees = $3,100,000 * 4% = $124,000

w2. Allocation of common expenses using the following assuptions:

a) Use cost of goods sold (COGS) to allocate Common fixed overhead:

Poinsettias = (460,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (1,630,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $623,923

b) Use common selling and administrative expense using Sales:

Poinsettias = (970,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (3,100,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $623,923
