Explanation:
The current ratio determines liquidity of a company. The current ratio is calculated by dividing total current assets from total current liabilities. The change in inventory will affect the current ratio of the company. In the consolidated financial statements the value of inventory is decreased due to exchange rate fluctuations. The change in value of inventory will affect the amount reported in the balance sheet of the parent and will ultimately result in reduction of current ratio.
Answer:
0.9; 100 million; 90 million; 2,143
Explanation:
The new fuel's price change has a standard deviation that is 50% greater than price changes in gasoline futures prices.
So, if standard deviation of future prices is taken as '1' then for spot price it will be 50% higher, i.e 1.5
The hedge ratio:
= Correlation × (standard deviation of spot price ÷ Standard deviation of future prices)
= 0.6 × (1.5 ÷ 1)
= 0.9
The company has an exposure of 100 million gallons of the new fuel.
Gallons in future gasoline:
= Hedge ratio × 100 million gallons of the new fuel
= 0.9 × 100
= 90 million
Each contract is on 42,000 gallons, then
Number of gasoline futures contracts should be traded:
= 90,000,000 ÷ 42,000
= 2,142.9 or 2,143
Mr. Simpson has the rights to remove the limb from his property because although the tree is residing in Mr. Jones' property, it does not mean that Mr. Simpson has no rights when the limbs of the tree has occupied his lot.
