Answer:

$15.43

Explanation:

Following actions are required for triangular arbitrage:

Available: $ 10,000

Buy sterling pound @ 1 $ = 1.62 pounds and receive pounds 6172.84 upon conversion.

Now, sell these pounds and purchase NZ $ at the rate :

1 pound = NZ $ 2.95 and receive NZ$ 18209.87

Now, reconvert the above proceeds into US $ at the rate

1 NZ $ = $0.55 i.e sell NZ $ at this rate and receive US $ 10,015.4285

Hence profit from implementing triangular arbitrage is $10,015.43 - $10,000

= $15.43

Arbitrage refers to the prospect of earning a profit by utilizing the mispricing in two different financial markets. An arbitrageur never uses his own funds and always borrows.

Arbitrage works only in the scenario wherein the interest rate purchase parity (IRPT) does not hold good.

The strategy of arbitrage is best explained as "Buy at low price and sell at a high price".

  • <u>  $250 fee to register for the conference,</u>
  • <u>  $300 per night for three night’s lodging,</u>
  • <u>  $200 for meals, and</u>
  • <u>  $150 for cab fare.</u>

A summation of this cost would give $1,300 as the amount of the total costs that can Melissa deduct as business expenses.

Making counterfeit copies of Gucci purses, Tommy Hilfiger sportswear, and other international brands is pervasive in some countr
Arlecino [84]

Correct question: Making counterfeit copies of Gucci purses, Tommy Hilfiger sportswear, and other international brands

is pervasive in China because laws protecting intellectual property are unclear and sporadically enforced. Even when sanctions are applied, sanctions are minimal, typically consisting of confiscation, a warning, a public apology, and perhaps a fine. Moreover, copying enjoys a long tradition in China and does not carry a stigma. A business introducing a product into China needs to know that its ___________ may lead to trademark infringements.

A. religious precepts

B. antecedent states

C. moral idealism

D. societal culture and norms

E. utilitarianism

Answer:

D, societal culture and norms.

Explanation:

because copying doesn't exactly have a law forbiding it but rather that it is seen as a form of art in china, the societal culture and norms of china makes it a normal for any new business coming into the country to resigns its fate to having copies of its products flooding the chinese market as soon as possible and such company can't sue for intellectual or copyright infringements.
