Baylor Bank believes the New Zealand dollar will appreciate over the next five days from $.48 to $.50. The following annual inte
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Its dollar profit from speculation over the five-day period will be <u>$208,035.93</u>.

Explanation:

This can be determined as follows:

Assuming Baylor Bank borrow $5,000,000

The borrowing will be converted to New Zealand dollar at the current exchange rate and we will have:

Conversion = $5,000,000 / 0.48 = NZ$10,416,667

The NZ$10,416,667 shall be invested at an annualized based on  New Zealand lending rate of 6.75% over five days. This will produce future value (FV) as follows:

FV of investment = Amount invested * (1 + NZ lending rate)^(5 years / 360 days) = NZ$10,416,667 * (1 + 6.75%)^(5 / 360) = NZ$10,426,121.44

Converting the NZ$10,426,121.44 to dollar at the new rate of $.50 as follows:

New conversion = NZ$10,426,121.44 * $.05 = $5,213,060.72

Amount to repay based on the US borrowing rate = Amount borrowed in USD * (1 + US borrowing rate)^(5 years / 360 days) = $5,000,000 * (1 + 7.5%)^(5 / 360) = $5,000,000 * 1.00100495826555 = $5,005,024.79

Profit = New conversion - Amount to repay = $5,213,060.72 - $5,005,024.79 = $208,035.93

Therefore, its dollar profit from speculation over the five-day period will be <u>$208,035.93</u>.

The difference between variable costs and fixed costs is (CMA adapted) A. Unit variable costs fluctuate and unit fixed costs rem
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

<em>(A) Unit variable costs fluctuate and unit fixed costs remain constant.</em>

Explanation:

The <em>fixed costs</em> are the costs which have to be incurred always, irrespective of what the output produced is by the firm. For instance, a firm always has to charge depreciation on its fixed assets, pay salary to the premises staff and pay fixed salary to the managers for managing etc, irrespective of whatever output it produces.

<em>Variable costs</em> are the costs which vary with the level of output produced activity. For example, if more output is produced more will be the raw material payments, more will be the manufacturing related other expenses and more will be the wages paid to the labour etc and vice-versa.

Hence, thereby the per <em>unit variable costs fluctuate and unit fixed costs remain constant.</em>

The Southern Corporation manufactures a single product and has the following cost structure: Variable costs per unit: Production
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

$3,500

Explanation:

Under variable costing method, product costs are calculated on variable manufacturing  costs only.

Step 1 : Determine unit Product Cost

Product Cost = Variable Manufacturing Costs

                      =  $ 35

Step 2 : Determine the units in Inventory

Units in Inventory = Opening Stock + Production - Sales

                              = 0 +  7,210 - 7,110

                              = 100 units

Step 3 : Determine Inventory value

Inventory value = Units x Cost per unit

                           = 100 units x $ 35

                           = $3,500

Conclusion :

the ending inventory of finished goods under variable costing would be: $3,500
