Answer:

c. $8.63

Explanation:

Missing word <em>"The forward LIBOR rate is 7%. All rates are compounded semiannually.  A. $8.88 , B. $9.12 , C. $8.63 , D. $9.02"</em>

Principal = $1000, FRA Rate = 9 % per annum, LIBOR after 2 years = 7 % per annum, Compounding Frequency: Semi-Annual, Risk-Free Rate = 6 % per annum

The FRA matures 2 years or 24 months from now. Further, the Interest Rate that the FRA hedges will create an interest expense only at the end of the LIBOR loan period which is an additional 6 months after the 24 month period.

Hence, Exchange of Interest Expense at the end of 30 Months = (FRA Rate - LIBOR) x Principal (calculated on a semi-annual basis)

= (0.045 - 0.035) * 1000

= $10

Current Value of FRA = Present Value of Interest Expense at the end of the 30 Months Period

= 10 / [1+(0.06/2)]^(30/6)

= $8.6261

= $8.63

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

0.66

Explanation:

the fourfirm concentration ratio is the sum of the concentration ratio of the four largest firms in the industry.

The sales of the second largest firm = $35 million - ( $10 million + $4 million+ $2 million + $12 million ) = $7 million

concentration ratio of firm 1 = $10 million / $35 million = 0.29

concentration ratio of firm 2  = $7 million / $35 million = 0.2

concentration ratio of firm 3 = $4 million / $35 million = 0.11

concentration ratio of firm 4 = $2 million / $35 million = 0.06

Adding the ratios together = 0.66

devlian [24]

The question is incomplete:

McDonald's serves McRice Burger in Malaysia, McOZ Burger in Australia, Kiwi Burger in New Zealand, McHuevo Burger in Uruguay and McSamurai Burger in Thailand. These menu variations are examples of a:

a. A combination of global and local marketing mix elements

b. a selection of menu items that can be sold eventually in U.S. markets

c. A replacement of standard menu names with fancy names

d. a deviation from successful marketing practices

e. a reflection of failure of US menu items in those countries

Answer:

a. A combination of global and local marketing mix elements

Explanation:

The answer is that these menu variations are examples of a combination of global and local marketing mix elements  because the company tries to position its products on a global scale but also adjusts its strategies locally to adapt the placement and distribution to the specific characteristics of each country.

The other options are not right because McDonalds is adjusting its offer in its market to be able to establish its position in that market and not to be able to sell the items in US markets or to replace standard menu names. Also, this is the result of analyzing how to better position in a new market and not a failure of US menu items in those countries.
