Answer:

$1.8780/£

Explanation:

According to the international Fisher effect, the relationship between the interest rate and the exchange rate between two countries A and B, after one year, is:

F=\frac{1+r_A}{1+r_B}*C

Where F is the future exchange rate, r is the interest rate, and C is the current exchange rate.

If the US has an interest rate of 2.50%, the UK has a rate pf 3.70% and the current exchange rate is $1.9000/£, the spot rate in one year will be:

F=\frac{1+0.0250}{1+0.037}*1.9000\\F = \$1.8780/\pounds

In one year, the spot rate will be $1.8780/£.

Why is there an inherent conflict between planning and control uses of budgets?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The main conflict that results between planning and control use of budgets is that managers might place their own personal interests before the interests of the company. This might result in budgets that are easily achievable (resulting in bonuses) or shifting income from one period to another in order to achieve certain budgets that will result in bonuses.

I will use a real life example that happened to me to explain this. I worked as a B2B sales representative for a large corporation (we were only 2 B2B salespeople + 1 manager) and when sales were slowing down, upper management would set up bonuses for achieving certain sales goals. The problem was that intentionally certain large sales that required management's approval were delayed and total sales would fall. Then suddenly the bonus show sup and all the large sales were approved and in two weeks the sales goals were achieved. Since B2B sales are not about selling to a lot of customers, but instead selling to the right customers a lot of products, a couple of delayed big sales made a huge difference and a 1% bonus meant changing your old car for a new one.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

$99,800

Explanation:

The statements of cash flows show cash inflows and out flows from the business activities which are recognized as operating, investing and financing activities.

When an asset is sold, the amount received from the sale of the asset is recognized as an inflow in the investing section of the cash flow statement.

The gain/loss from the sale would have been treated in the operating section based on the effect it had in the income statement while computing the net income of the company.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

a) $14,600.

Explanation:

The computation of the company total assets are shown below:

= Cash balance + supplies balance + equipment balance

where,

Cash balance =  investment amount + borrowed amount - paid amount for equipment

= $6,200 + $3,200 - $2,120

= $7,280

And, the other item values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $7,280 + $1,120 + $6,200
