Answer: The yen is selling at a per annum "DISCOUNT of -6.30%"

Explanation: This is a per annum discount, because the amount of dollar used in buying the yen has reduced, which made the $1 to be able to buy 127yen instead of 125yen.

To find the forward discount;

[(1 ÷ forward rate) - (1 ÷ spot rate) / (1 ÷ spot rate)] × (360 ÷ 90)

Spot rate = 125

Forward rate = 127

Therefore forward discount is

[(1÷127) - (1÷125) / (1÷125)] × (360÷90)

(-0.000126 / 0.008) × 4 = -0.063

Therefore forward discount = -6.30%

The negative sign means that it is a percentage discount

Answer:

1. Discount

2. 6.30%

Explanation:

1. Forward discount means that more units of a currency is needed to a unit of another currency in the future. In the question, 2 (127 - 125  = 2) more units of yen will be needed in the future to buy the same one unit of the US dollar.

2. To calculate the percentage of the forward discount, we use the forward discount formula as follows:

Forward discount = {[(1 ÷ Forward rate) - (1 ÷ Spot rate)] ÷ [1 ÷ Spot rate]} x {360 ÷ 90)}

Forward discount = {[(1 ÷ 127) - (1 ÷ 125)] ÷ [1 ÷ 125]} × {360 ÷ 90}

                              = {[0.007874016  - 0.008 ] ÷ [0.008]} × 4

                              = {-0.000125984  ÷ 0.008} × 4

                              = -0.015748 × 4

                              = -0.062992  = - 6.30% approximately.

Therefore, the negative sign shows that the yen is selling at a per annum​ discount of​ 6.30%. This indicates yen worth less in the future against the US dollar.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

A. supply curve shifts to the left

Explanation:

An increase in the prices of inputs from $4 to $6 shows economic problems that include a reduction in capital stock, labor, and an increased unemployment rate. This can also give room for inflation.

This increase shows that due to shortage in labor supply, it now costs more to produce a product.

Due to all the above mentioned reasons, the supply curve of both long run and short run supply curves shifts left.

Cheers.
