Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Purchasing Power Parity.

Explanation:

Purchasing Power Parity or PPP compares currencies of different countries through the approach of a market basket of goods. Two currencies are in PPP when, in both countries, a market basket of goods, taking into account the exchange rate, is priced the same. PPP currency rates are considered more reliable than the exchange rates on the market.

-to record issuance of the bonds--

interest expense     15,416.67 debit

  interest payable                     15,000      credit

  discount on BP                           416.67 credit

--to record year-end adjustment entry--

interest payable   15,000      debit

interest expense   3,083.33 debit

  cash                                       18,000    credit

  Discount on BP                         416.67 credit

-to record first interest payment to bondholders--

Explanation:

proceeds from the bonds:  592,000

face value of the bonds.    (600,000)

discount on BP                        (8,000)

We amortize over the life of the bond in equal parts:

8,000 / 20 payment (10years x 2 payment per year) = 500

interest accrued from August 1st to December 31th:

face value x rate x time accrued

600,000 x 6% x 5/12 = 15,000

accrued proportional amortization

amortizationfor 6 months x accrued month

from Augsut 1st to December 31th

500 x 5/6 = 416.67

February 1st payment:

600,000 x 6% x 1/12 = 3,000 interest expense

cash outlay:

600,000 x 6% x 6/12 = 18,000

amortization 500 - 416.67 = 83.33

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Break even sales will be $2700

So option (b) will be correct option

Explanation:

We have given fixed cost = $1400

Sells per unit = $27 each

And variable cost per unit = $13 each

So contribution margin ratio =\frac{sales\ per\ unit-variable\ cost\ perunit}{sales\ per\ unit}=\frac{27-13}{27}=0.5185

We know that break even sales is given by

Break even sales =\frac{fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ ratio}=\frac{1400}{0.5185}=$2700

So option (b) will be correct answer

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Stronger

Explanation:

Given that inflation affects trade flows, as the higher price of commodities have negative impacts on exports rates. Thus, all things being equal, it is expected that high inflation should cause downward pressure on the exchanger rate of Krendo.

Hence, the inflation effect will be STRONGER than the interest rate effect in influencing the exchanger rate of Krendo against the U.S. dollar.
