Answer:
$7,300 loss
Explanation:
The computation of the net foreign exchange gain or loss included in the income statement is shown below:
Since the merchandise purchased value is $62,900
And, the paid amount is $53,200
So, the gain on transaction is
= $62,900 - $53,200
= $9,700
The borrowed amount is $305,000
And, the principal amount is $322,000
So, the loss is
= $305,000 - $322,000
= $17,000 loss
So in this case $7,300 loss is included which is a difference of $9,700 and $17,000
