Answer:

C. The Home Currency will depreciate if current home Inflation rate exceeds current  foreign inflation rate.

Explanation:

Purchasing Power Parity suggests that identical consumption basket of goods cost same in all nations ,if measured in single currency denomination. So , Exchange rate between two countries = Price level Ratio b/w them . Example : ExRt ($/€) = Pr (US) / Pr (Europe)  [Also called Law of One Price]. Ex- A Commodity basket costing 200$ in US & €160 in Europe would imply $/€ ex.rate = 200/160 = 1.25 ,implying equal price of commodity basket in both countries

It also states that changes in exchange rate are governed by changes in national price level . A country with relatively higher inflation rate depreciates, a country with relatively less inflation rate appreciates (depending on their domestic inflation rate differentials).Such happens to retain the 'Law of one Price' equality if either country's price level changes. Eg : If US price level triple to 600$ , exchange rate would change to 600/160 = 3.75€ / $ , implying inflation rise in US has increased exchange rate & devalued its currency.

Answer:

Option (C) is Correct.

Explanation:

There are two countries : Home country and Foreign country.

Purchasing power parity measures or compares the currencies of the two different nations by using a basket of goods approach.

It is calculated as follows:

= (cost of basket of goods in home currency) ÷ (Cost of same basket of goods in foreign country)

We know that if there is an increase in the rate of inflation in a home country then as a result there is a fall in the value of home currency. Higher inflation will lead to an increase in the prices of goods in the home country but prices remains the same in foreign country.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Her Yearly Repayment will be approximately $5771

Explanation:

For an Amortized Loan, to calculate the payment amount per period, we use the formula:

A=[P(1+r)ⁿ]/[(1+r)ⁿ-1]

where A=Payment per period

P= Initial Principal/Loan Amount

r= Interest rate per period

n= number of payments period

From the information provided,

P=$20000

n=4 years

r=6%=0.06

Therefore Yearly Repayment Amount A=[Pr(1+r)ⁿ]/[(1+r)ⁿ-1]

=[20000X0.06(1+0.06)⁴]/[(1+0.06)⁴-1]

=[1200(1.06)⁴]/[(1.06)⁴-1]

=[1200X1.2625]/[1.2625-1]

=1515/0.2625

=$5771.43

For banquets, meals are placed on plates using a "plating belt" that moves plates past staff who place food on each plate. If pl
White raven [17]
<h2>Answer : Option A) 1 foot/second</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

If we consider that the plates are placed 2 ft apart and there has to be 1800 meals that needs to be delivered in an hour.

so if we multiply 2 ft and 1800 meals that is delivered in 1 hour,we get 2 X 1800 = 3600 meals in an hour.

If we try to accommodate the plates at each ft then there will be 3600 meals delivered in 1 hour.

we know that 1 hour has 3600 seconds in it.

So, here the distance is 1 ft, and speed has to be determined time is 1 hour = 3600 seconds

3600 meals / 3600  seconds = 1 foot per second.

OR 1800 meals set at 2 ft apart in 3600 seconds will give the speed of the belt as 1 foot per second.

(1 ft = speed X 1 hour)

<h2>so, the speed also will be 1 foot per second. </h2>
