Answer:
B. French wines will become more expensive in the United States.
Explanation:
Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another during international trade. The strength of a currency determines how much of the other countrie's goods it can purchase.
When the strength of a countrie's currency is high it will purchase more of the other countrie's goods. If however the currency is weak, it will take more to buy the other countrie's goods.
In this case if the dollar falls against the euro, it will take more dollars to buy French wine than before.
For example if a bottle of French wine was $500, after the fall the price may now be $800.

Answer:
1,200 shares held at a cost basis of $37.50
Explanation:
Since there are 1,000 shares are purchased
and the stock dividend is 20%
So the number of shares after the dividend is
= 1,000 × (1 + dividend percentage)
= 1,000 × (1 + 0.20)
= 1,000 × 1.20
= 1.200
And, the price per share is
= $44 + $1
= $45
So, the cost basis would be
= $45 ÷ 1.20
= $37.50
hence, the tax status of the investment is 1,200 shares held for cost at $37.50 basis

Answer:
Deposited amount will decrease by 1% and $2,000
Explanation:
Inflation rate will effect the value of money due to decrease in purchasing power of the currency holder.
We will use following formula to calculate the impact
Nominal rate = Real interest rate + Inflation rate
5% = Real interest rate + 6%
Real interest rate = 5% - 6% = -1%
The deposited amount will be decreased by 1%.
Deposit value = $200,000 x ( 1 - 1% ) = $198,000
Decrease in value = $200,000 - $198,000 = $2,000
