Answer::Leader-Member exchange , Out group members

Explanation:Leader-Member exchange theory is a relationship based theory of leadership that exists between the leading managers and their n employees together with their interaction with each other leading to a productive workplace environment for both individuals.

The created relationship can either succeed when there is trust and mutual respect leading to effective employees or fail by producing undesired result in terms of a hostile relationship leading to low efficiency and productivity from employees

According to the leader member exchange theory, leaders tend to create different relationships with followers by forming two groups----- in group members and out group members

of which the outgroup members are given less responsibilities with less attention and work outside the leaders inner circle of communication and therefore are less likely to engage in organizational citizenship than other employees.

This answer however, is still debated by some experts who argue that this method is not healthy for our oceans.</span>

Break-even sales and sales to realize operating income For the current year ended March 31, Cosgrove Company expects fixed costs

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

a. 80,000 units

b. 95,000 units

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a.The anticipated break-even sales (units) is

As we know that

Break even point in units = Total fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= $27,600,000 ÷ $345

= 80,000 units

Where,

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $1,150 - $805

= $345

b. The units for realize operating income is

Unit sales for target profit = (Fixed expense + Target profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= ($27,600,000 + $5,175,000) ÷ $345

= $32,775,000 ÷ $345

= 95,000 units

Your firm (an Australian firm) makes a sale to a Japanese customer. The sale price is 200 million Japanese Yen payable in exact

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

An Australian Firm Selling to a Japanese Customer

a) Direct Quote of the Exchange Rate between Australian Dollar and Japanese Yen:

A$ 1 = ¥90

Meaning 1 Australian Dollar = 90 Japanese Yen.

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90

b)Theoretical Current Forward Exchange Rate, quoted in terms of JPY/AUD for delivery in three months:

= Spot Rate x (1 + Japanese Interest Rate) / (1 + Australian Interest Rate) x 360/90

= ¥90 x (1 +0.005) / (1 +0.03) x 360/90 = ¥90 x 1.005/1.03 x 360/90

= ¥351.26214 =A$1

c) The Australian firm can take advantage of any decreases in the exchange rate and also ensure that it receives at least Australian $2 million by entering into a Currency Forwards Contract.

d) If the spot exchange rate in 3 month's time is:

(i) AUD/JPY=150, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the gain of:

Forward Exchange outcome in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥150 =

A$ 1,333,333.33333

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - A$ 1,333,333.33333 = A$666,666.66667

(ii) AUD/JPY = 50, the outcome of the hedging with a Currency Forwards Contract to get at least A$ 2 million would be the loss of:

Forward Exchange outcome = in Australian Dollars = ¥200 million/ ¥50 =

A$4 million

Hedging outcome minus Forward Exchange outcome

A$2 million - $4 million = -A$2million

Explanation:

a) Currency forwards contracts and future contracts are used to hedge the currency risk. For example, a company expecting to receive ¥200 million in 90 days, can enter into a forward contract to deliver the ¥200 million and receive equivalent Australian dollars in 90 days at an exchange rate specified today.

b) If A$ 1 = ¥90

Therefore, the price of the goods would be A$ 2,222,222.22222 (¥200 million)/ ¥90 in Australian Dollars.
