Answer:
B. increases the demand for U.S. dollars.
Explanation:
Foreigners buying US goods and services will need the US dollar to complete the transactions. For them to acquire the US dollar, they will have to exchange their local currencies with the dollar. In other words, they will use their domestic currencies to buy the US dollar.
Foreign exchange is the term used to describe transactions involving buying and selling of currencies.
As foreigners buy US goods and services, they will cause the demand for the US dollar to rise. In the foreign exchange market, currencies are the commodities. If the US dollar is ordered more, its demand will increase. Like other goods, an increase in demand will lead to an increase in price. If foreigners demand more of US goods and services, the US dollar will appreciate in value.
Answer: -$273,747.85
Explanation:
EAC of machine = Net Present Value / Present value interest factor of Annuity(PVIFA)
Net Present value = Present value of cashflow - Initial investment
= -26,300 * PVIFA, 12%, 5 years - 892,000
= -26,300 * 3.6048 - 892,000
= -$986,806.24
EAC of machine = -986,806.24/ 3.6048
= -$273,747.85

Answer:
purchase the machine because the expected rate of return exceeds the interest rate.
Explanation:
Given the cost of machine = $2000
If the firm borrows fund at an interest rate of 10% to buy the machine,
Interest paid on the cost of machine = 10% of $200
= 10/100 × $2000
= $200
Total amount that must be paid back for the machine by the firm = actual cost of machine + interest rate
= $2000 + $200
= $2,200
Since the additional revenue generated from the machine after all operating cost = $2,300
Profit accrued by the firm = Revenue - (actual cost of machine + interest)
Profit accrued by the firm = $2,300-$2200
Profit accrued by the firm on the machine = $100
Based on the profit margin, it can be concluded that the firm can purchase the machine because the expected rate of return exceeds the interest rate.
Note that the expected rate of return is $300 (i.e $2300 - $2000) and the interest rate of is $200 (i.e 10% of $2000)
