Answer:
Option "B" is the correct answer to the following statement.
Explanation:
Given:
Exchange rate of 1 Baht= $0.022
Expected inflation in united states (Assume) = 3% = 0.03
Expected inflation in Thailand (Assume) = 10% = 0.10
Computation:
After 1 year rate of 1 Baht in Dollar
The price in US = 1 × (1+0.03) = $1.03
The price in Thailand = 1 × (1+0.10) = 1.10 baht
1 baht = 1.03×0.022÷1.1 = $0.0206
Therefore, 1 baht = $0.21 (approx)
The applicable formula is;
A = P(1-r)^n
Where;
A = Final purchasing power
P = Current purchasing power
r = inflation
n = Number of years when P changes to A
Confirming the first claim:
A = 1/2P (to be confirmed)
P = $3
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10.25 years
Using the formula;
A = 3(1-0.07)^10.25 = 3(0.475) ≈ 3(0.5) = $1.5
And therefore, A = 1/2P after 10.25 years.
Now, give;
P = $9
A = 1/4P = $9/4 = $2.25
r = 6.5% = 0.065
n = ? (nearest year).
Substituting;
2.25 = 9(1-0.065)^n
2.25/9 = (1-0.065)^n
0.25 = (1-0.065)^n
ln (0.25)= n ln(1-0.065)
-1.3863 = -0.0672n
n = (-1.3863)/(-0.0672) = 20.63 years
To nearest year;
n = 21 years
Therefore, it would take approximately 21 years fro purchasing power to reduce by 4. That is, from $9 to $2.25.
Answer:
$33,630
Explanation:
Given that the company's collection history shows that 43% of credit sales are collected in month of sale and the remainder (57%) is collected in the following month then, in the month of January, Cash collections in January from December credit sales would be equivalent to 57% of December Credit sales. Using the actual figures,
Cash collections in January from December credit sales would be
= 57% * 59,000
= $33,630

Explanation:
Earnings Per Share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Shares ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Shares Outstanding.
Diluted Earnings per Share takes into account potential voting rights.
The Preference dividend is <em>not</em> deducted from Net Income as it carries a potential voting right.
