Answer:

Predicted exchange rate = Country price of Big Mac/ US price of Big Mac

Predicted exchange rate:

Chile = 2,050 / 4.37

= 469.11 Pesos / US dollar

Hungary = 830 / 4.37

= 189.93 Forints / USD

Czech Republic = 70 / 4.37

= 16.01 Korunas / USD

Brazil = 11.25 / 4.37

= 2.57 Real/ USD

Canada = 5.41 / 4.37

= 1.24C$/ US$

<em>According to purchasing power parity, the predicted exchange rate between the Hungarian forint and the Canadian dollar is </em><em><u>153.42 Forint per C$</u></em><em>. However, the actual exchange rate is </em><em><u>217 Forint per Canadian Dollar</u></em><em>. </em>

Predicted exchange rate = 830 / 5.41 = 153.42 Forint per C$

Actual Exchange rate = 217/1 = 217 Forint per C$

Express the following comparative income statements in common-size percents. (Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place.)
Mila [183]

Answer: Cost of Goods sold

Explanation:

Common size analysis refers to making all entries in the income statement, a percentage of sales for that year.

Current Year                                                      Prior Year

Sales                                      100%                           100%

Cost of Goods sold               75.7%                          46.5%

Gross Profit                            24.3%                          53.5%

Operating expenses             17.3%                             35%

Net Income                              7.0%                            18.5%

<em>Looking at the percentages above, one can see that the COGS increased the most from the previous year by going from 46.5% to 75.7% representing an increase of 29.2%.</em>

<em>This had the most impact on Net income as it substantially reduced Gross profit. </em>
