Answer:
The interest rate is higher in the US.
Explanation:
The forward price is calculated using the following formula,
F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t
where,
- F = Forward rate
- S = Spot rate
- Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
- Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
- t = time in years
We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD
The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.
We can see this by the following example,
Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)
F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1 => $1.362 PER 1EUR
Answer:
$7,200
Explanation:
The computation of the total manufacturing overhead assigned is shown below:
= ($168,640 + $127,840 + $554,400 + $1,078,000) ÷ $514,368
= 375% per direct-labor dollar.
Now
= $514,368 ÷ 8,037
= $64 per DL hour.
And,
= $64 × 30 direct labor hours
= $1920.
So,
Manufacturing overhead is
= 1920 × 375%
= $7,200
Answer:
The correct answer is C. Credits decrease assets and increase liabilities.
Explanation:
A credit is a provision of money in the form of a loan, granted by a creditor (lender) to a debtor (borrower). For the creditor, the transaction gives rise to a claim on the borrower, under which he can obtain repayment of the funds and payment of remuneration (interest) according to a fixed schedule. For the borrower, whether it is a business or an individual, the credit establishes the existence of a debt (increasing liabilities) and opens the availability of a temporary financial resource.
Answer:
we can look at this problem from 2 different point of views:
if you have francs and wish to buy pounds: then you take 12 francs and purchase 1 ounce of gold, and then you sell it for 6 pounds. This way you will only spend 2 francs per each pound instead of 2.2.
if you have pounds and want to make a gain: you take 6 pounds and purchase 13.2 francs and you then buy 1.1 ounces of gold. Then you sell the 1.1 ounces of gold in exchange for 6.6 pounds.
Any of the scenarios does not include any transaction prices nor shipping costs, it is only theoretical.
