Answer:

The interest rate is higher in the US.

Explanation:

The forward price is calculated using the following formula,

F= S ( 1+Rd / 1+Rf)^t

where,

  • F = Forward rate
  • S = Spot rate
  • Rd = Nominal interest rate in domestic market
  • Rf = Nominal interest rate in foreign market
  • t = time in years

We consider that the domestic market is the US and the domestic currency is the USD. Thus, it is a direct quote where 1 EUR = 1.3 USD

The forward price ER is more than the Sport ER only when the interest rate in domestic market is more than the interest rate in foreign market and as a result, the value of domestic currency against a foreign currency in the forward market depreciates.

We can see this by the following example,

Say Spot rate is $1.3 per 1 EUR and the interest rate in US is 10% while that in Euro zone is 5%. When we calculate the forward ER we will see that 1 EUR will buy us more USD in forward (more than 1.3 USD)

F= 1.3 * (1.1 / 1.05)^1   => $1.362 PER 1EUR

C. I, II, III

Explanation:

In a period of falling interest rates, a bond dealer would engage in all of the following activities except for IV. Therefore, a dealer would raise his quoted price in Bloomberg. If the dealer has an appreciated bond that he wishes to sell, he can place ''Request for Bids'' for those bonds in Bloomberg. The dealer may buy bond the he has previously sold short to limit losses due to rising price. To protect existing short position against the rising price, the dealer will buy call options, not put options. Put options are used in protecting existing long position from falling price.

A company creates 40 units of a product using 30 hours of labor and 15 sheets of paper. Labor costs $10/ hour and paper costs $5
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

0.038 units per $ of factor costs

Explanation:

Labor cost for 40 units  = 30 hours × $10/hour = $300

Cost of paper for 40 units = 15 sheets × $50/sheet = $750

Output = 40 units

Multi factor productivity is expressed as;

Multi factor productivity = Output/Total Factor cost

Multi factor productivity = 40 units/$1050 = 0.038 units per $ of factor cost

Multi factor productivity is a measure that depicts units produced for every $ of factor products used. In the above case 2 factors i.e labor and paper are used.

A firm's attempts to shorten the length of time a process takes, may lead to disappointing outcomes because of ______.
liraira [26]

A firm's attempts to shorten the length of time a process takes may lead to disappointing outcomes because of time compression diseconomies.

<h3>What are time compression diseconomies?</h3>
  • According to time compression diseconomies, which are defined as inefficiencies that arise when work is done more quickly, the cost of building a competency will rise exponentially as the amount of time permitted to do so decreases.
  • Not every subsidiary deals with time compression diseconomies to the same extent.
  • The date of a later subsidiary formation may affect how strong TCD is. Early-established subsidiaries may have greater TCD than later entries due to two factors.
  • First, for late movers, vicarious learning may lower TCD. Second, TCD is made worse by the higher environmental uncertainty that early mover subsidiaries frequently experience.
  • TCD explains why the well-studied relationship between the level of multi-nationality and business success is negatively moderated by the rate of overseas expansion.
