Answer:

B. French wines will become more expensive in the United States.

Explanation:

Exchange rate is the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another during international trade. The strength of a currency determines how much of the other countrie's goods it can purchase.

When the strength of a countrie's currency is high it will purchase more of the other countrie's goods. If however the currency is weak, it will take more to buy the other countrie's goods.

In this case if the dollar falls against the euro, it will take more dollars to buy French wine than before.

For example if a bottle of French wine was $500, after the fall the price may now be $800.

Standard, Inc. reported EBIT of $35 million for last year. Depreciation expense totaled $20 million and capital expenditures cam
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

$710.84 million

Explanation:

Net income = $35 million

Depreciation = $20 million

Capital expenditures = $7 million

Tax rate = 21%

D/E ratio = 0.4

Growth rate = 6%

Equity beta = 1.25

So, firm's asset beta = Equity beta/(1 + D/E*(1-T))

= 1.25/(1 + 0.4*(1-0.21))

= 0.94985

So, Free Cash Flow to the Firm= NI + Depreciation - Capital expenditures

= 35 + 20 - 7

= $48 million

Risk free rate Rf = 5%

Market risk premium = 7.5%

So, firm cost of capital using CAPM is Rf + Beta*(MRP)

Kc = 5 + 0.94985*7.5

Kc = 12.1239

So, Firms value using constant dividend growth model:

FV = FCF*(1+g)/(Kc-g)

FV = 48*1.06 / 0.121239-0.06

FV = 50.88 / 0.061239

FV = 830.8430901876255

FV = $830.84 million

Debt = $120 million

Market Value of equity = FV - Debt

Market Value of equity = $830.84 million - $120 million

Market Value of equity = $710.84 million

How do natural resources and geography relate to economic growth for a country?
Archy [21]

Answer:

Limited natural resources such as infertile land and lack of coastal access can limit economic growth for a country.

Explanation:

Natural resources are a source of wealth for the country.  Mineral such oil and precious stones have made nations wealthy.

Land is a factor of production. Lack of fertile lands will make a nation dependent on imports for its food security.  Access to coastal areas facilitates cheaper and fast international trade. Landlocked countries use harbor of other nations for global business. Goods and services from landlocked counties may be more expensive as a result of high transport costs.
