On July 15, 2016, you convert 650,000 U.S. dollars to Japanese yen in the spot foreign exchange market and purchase a six-month
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The question is not complete:

On July 15, 2016, you convert 650,000 U.S. dollars to Japanese yen in the spot foreign exchange market (¥104.91/$) and purchase a six-month forward contract ($0.0095320/¥1) to convert yen into dollars. How much will you receive in U.S. dollars at the end of six months? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

The sum of $650,001.38  would be received in six months

Explanation:

In the first place by buying the yen in the spot market on July 15 ,2016, the amount of yen is computed thus:

$650,000 was at (¥104.91/$) ,which implies that each $ was exchanged for ¥104.91

yen received =$650,000*104.91/1

                       = ¥ 68,191,500.00  

The six month forward contract outcome is as follows:

($0.0095320/¥1)

each Yen was exchanged $0.0095320

dollars received= ¥ 68,191,500.00 *0.0095320/1

                          =$650,001.38

Computation of net income and net profit margin

Revenues   ( $   900 + $ 1,700 )                                                     $ 2,600    

Expenses ($ 200 + $ 1,200 + $ 100 )                                             <u>$ 1,500</u>

Net Income                                                                                      $ 1,100    

Net profit margin = Net income / Revenues

Vande Velde Company made three investments during 2017. Where will Vande Velde report these investments in the fair value hierar
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a. level 3

b.level 1

c. level 2

Explanation:

Vande Velde Company made three investments during 2017. Where will Vande Velde report these investments in the fair value hierarchy?1. It purchased 1,000 shares of Sastre Company, a start-up company. Vande Velde made the investment based on valuation estimates from an internally developed model.2. It purchased 2,000 shares of GE stock, which trades on the NYSE. 3. It invested $10,000 in local development authority bonds. Although these bonds do not trade on an active market, their value closely tracks movements in U.S. Treasury bond.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3) while Level 2 assets are financial assets and liabilities that are neither easy or overly complex to value.Going by the explanation the investment will be given hierarchy 3, 2,1

if Van verde purchased shares on the New York stock Exchange , then the percentage in price over time is more than the other two options . In stock purchase, investors can realised more profit on their  stocks than bond which can give like 10-15% on the initial cash outlay. The only caveat is that Stocks is a little bit risky and could be volatile owing to price fluctuations ,and the forces of demand and supply.

Budgeted performance is a better criterion than past performance for judging​ managers." do you​ agree? why?
eimsori [14]
Not really, the budgeted performance is like an expectation of a work, which is still uncertain until the result comes, in other words, an opinion on a work; while the past performance was the fact, which came from the employee's work in the past few months. To judge the fact is better than an uncertain picture.
