Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Assume a speculator anticipates that the spot rate of the franc in three months will be lower than today’s three-month forward rate of the franc, .

a. The speculator can use $1 million to speculate in the forward market by purchasing a forward contract for 2,000,000 francs to be paid out in three months. This helps the speculator avoid losing money as the exchange rate decreases in period of three months.

b. Suppose the franc’s spot rate in three months is $0.40:

This means that the dollar is expected to appreciate in three months because its current rate is. It would take fewer dollars to purchase one franc in three months. The demand for dollars would increase because speculators looking to make a profit would hold as many dollars as possible while waiting for the currency to appreciate, then sell it for more than they purchased it for.

Hence, the speculator could make a profit of $0.10 on each franc.

Suppose the franc’s spot rate in three months is $0.60:

This means that the dollar is expected to depreciate in three months because its current rate is. It would take more dollars to purchase one franc in three months. The demand for dollars would decrease because speculators are expecting the currency’s value to fall in the coming three months.

The speculator would suffer a loss of $0.10 on each franc.

Suppose the franc’s spot rate in three months is $0.50:

This means that the value of the dollar is expected stay the same because its current rate is. It would take the same amount of dollars to purchase one franc in three months. The demand for dollars would remain constant.

The speculator would earn no profit no loss when the Franc’s spot rate in 3 months is $0.50.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The CPI for the given year is 123.

Explanation:

Consumer price index (CPI)

$=\frac{\textrm{cost at given year}}{\textrm{cost at base year}}$

In the base year, the typical family bought 4 loaves of bread at $2 per loaf and 2 bottles of wine for $ 9 per bottle.

Cost at base year =$[(4×2)+(2×9)]

=$26

In a given year, bread cost $3 per loaf and wine cost $10 per bottle.

Cost at given year =$[(4×3)+(2×10)]

=$32

The CPI for the given year is

$=\frac {32}{26}\times 100$

≈123

The equipment necessary for a 4 year project will cost $3,300,000 and can be sold for $650,000 at the end of the project. The as

Allisa [31]

Answer: $618,096

Explanation:

Accumulated depreciation after 5 years = 20% + 32% + 19.2% + 11.52

= 82.72%

Value after 4 years = 3,300,000 * ( 1 - 82.72%)

= $570,240

Gain on sale = Salvage value - Net book value

= 650,000 - 570,240

= $79,760

Aftertax salvage value = 650,000 - (Gain on sale * tax)

= 650,000 - (79,760 * 40%)

= $618,096

Which statement represents most correctly the relationship between nominal GDP and real GDP?

Nady [450]

Answer:

The answer is: C) Nominal GDP measures current production using current prices, whereas real GDP measures current production using base-year prices.

Explanation:

Nominal GDP measures the production of total finished products and services within a country during a particular period using the current prices of the products and services. Real GDP measures the production of total finished products and services within a country during a particular period using base-year prices of the products and services.

Nominal GDP doesn't take in account inflation, while real GDP is adjusted by inflation. Nominal GDP is also higher than the real GDP since recent prices are higher than the base-year prices (due to inflation). Real GDP can be used to compare the economy's evolution over periods of time.
