Explanation:
Economic exposure is a type of exposure to exchange rate risk caused by the effect of unexpected currency fluctuations on a company's cash flows, foreign investment, and future earnings.
Economic exposure, also known as operating exposure, can have a substantial impact on a company's market value, as it has far-reaching effects and is long-term in nature. Companies can protect themselves against unexpected currency fluctuations by investing in currency markets (FX).
Unlike transaction exposure and conversion exposure (the other two types of currency exposure), economic exposure is difficult to measure accurately and therefore difficult to hedge. Economic exposure is also relatively difficult to hedge because it faces unexpected changes in exchange rates, unlike expected changes in exchange rates, which form the basis of companies' budget forecasts.
Answer:
219 sheets
Explanation:
D = 5000 per year,
d = daily demand = 5000/365 = 13.70 sheets
T = time between orders (review) = 14 days
L = Lead time = 10 days
σd= Standard deviation of daily demand = 5 per day
I = Current Inventory = 150 sheets Service Level
P = 95% (Probability of not stocking out) q=d(L+D)z σ T+L-1
σ T+L-1= square root (T+L)=5 square root 14+10= 24.495
From Standard normal distribution, z = 1.64 for 95% Service Level (or 5% Stock out)
q=13.70*(14+10)+1.64(24.495)-150
= 218.97 →219 sheets
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
We need to find the segment margin of the deparment, which is equal to annual contribution margin minus avoidable fixed costs:
Wallen Corporation
Annual contribution margin $80,000
Annual fixed costs $160,000
Unavoidable fixed costs $90,000
Avoidable fixed costs $70,000
Segment Margin = Annual contribution margin - avoidable fixed costs
= $80,000 - $70,000
= $10,000
Therefore, if the company eliminated this department, it would have a financial advantage of $10,000, equivalent to the deparment's current segment margin.
Answer:
The correct answer is: a positive correlation.
Explanation:
Correlation can say something about the relationship between variables. It is used to understand:
1. If the relationship is positive or negative
2. The strength of the relationship.
Correlation is a powerful tool that provides vital pieces of information.
In the case of family income and family spending, it is easy to see that both rise or fall together in the same direction. This is called a positive correlation.
In the case of price and demand, the change occurs in the opposite direction, so that the increase in one is accompanied by a decrease in the other. This is known as a negative correlation.
Answer:
A. $86,900
Explanation:
Henry’s capital account will be credited by the amount of $86,900. See computation below.
Cash $57,300
Equipment 34,100
Inventory 10,400
Note payable (14,900)
————
Total $86,900
*Both the equipment and the inventory will be recorded on partnership’s book at fair market value at the time of contribution.
*The partnership may absorb the obligation if it is associated with an asset contributed by partner. Thus, it will be deducted to his capital account as contribution to the partnership.
