Answer:
$4,373
Explanation:
we will check lower of cost or market for individual items:
Minolta :
= Market value per unit × No. of units
= 158 × 5
= $790
Canon :
= Cost per unit × No. of units
= 145 x 7
= $1,015
Vivitar:
= Market value per unit × No. of units
= 114 x 12
= $1,368
Kodak:
= Cost per unit × No. of units
= 120 x 10
= $1,200
Total amount should be reported on Brik Camera Shop's financial statements:
= $790 + $1,015 + $1,368 + $1,200
= $4,373
Accumulated Balance is given by :
Here,
n = time period = 30×12 = 360.
P = principal price = $250.
Putting all given values in above equation, we get :
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
$15.43
Explanation:
Following actions are required for triangular arbitrage:
Available: $ 10,000
Buy sterling pound @ 1 $ = 1.62 pounds and receive pounds 6172.84 upon conversion.
Now, sell these pounds and purchase NZ $ at the rate :
1 pound = NZ $ 2.95 and receive NZ$ 18209.87
Now, reconvert the above proceeds into US $ at the rate
1 NZ $ = $0.55 i.e sell NZ $ at this rate and receive US $ 10,015.4285
Hence profit from implementing triangular arbitrage is $10,015.43 - $10,000
= $15.43
Arbitrage refers to the prospect of earning a profit by utilizing the mispricing in two different financial markets. An arbitrageur never uses his own funds and always borrows.
Arbitrage works only in the scenario wherein the interest rate purchase parity (IRPT) does not hold good.
The strategy of arbitrage is best explained as "Buy at low price and sell at a high price".
