Answer: historical exchange rate
Explanation:
The temporal method is also referred to as the historical method. Under this method, the currency of a foreign subsidiary is being converted into the currency of the parent company.
It should be noted that under the temporal method, the income statement items which relate to newly recognized assets and liabilities generally are remeasured using the historical exchange rate.
Back in 2015, McDonald’s was struggling. In Europe, sales were down 1.4% across the previous 6 years; 3.3% down in the US and almost 10% down across Africa and the Middle East. There were a myriad of challenges to overcome. Rising expectations of customer experience, new standards of convenience, weak in-store technology, a sprawling menu, a PR-bruised brand and questionable ingredients to name but a few.
McDonald’s are the original fast-food innovators; creating a level of standardisation that is quite frankly, remarkable. Buy a Big Mac in Beijing and it’ll taste the same as in Stratford-Upon Avon.
So when you’ve optimised product delivery, supply chain and flavour experience to such an incredible degree — how do you increase bottom line growth? It’s not going to come from making the Big Mac cheaper to produce — you’ve already turned those stones over (multiple times).
The answer of course, is to drive purchase frequency and increase margins through new products.
Numerous studies have shown that no matter what options are available, people tend to stick with the default options and choices they’ve made habitually. This is even more true when someone faces a broad selection of choices. We try to mitigate the risk of buyers remorse by sticking with the choices we know are ‘safe’.
McDonald’s has a uniquely pervasive presence in modern life with many of us having developed a pattern of ordering behaviour over the course of our lives (from Happy Meals to hangover cures). This creates a unique, and less cited, challenge for McDonald’s’ reinvention: how do you break people out of the default buying behaviours they’ve developed over decades?
In its simplest sense, the new format is designed to improve customer experience, which will in turn drive frequency and a shift in buying behaviour (for some) towards higher margin items. The most important shift in buying patterns is to drive reappraisal of the Signature range to make sure they maximise potential spend from those customers who can afford, and want, a more premium experience.

The correct answer is letter "E": find the idea for his business.
Explanation:
There are no set of steps or books that could determine when entrepreneurs could start a business or not. Most ventures are engaged by recognizing an opportunity and matching it with strengths individuals have that could make the plan work. Proper assessment and partnership are vital in this stage for the venture not to be affected by the initial challenges of entering into a market.
If Arnold has found he has an entrepreneurial spirit, then, he should spot different opportunities in the market for him to take one and develop a business idea.
Answer:
Future value at the end of 19 years =$63,637.94
Explanation:
<em>The Future value (FV) of an investment is the total amount (principal plus interest) that will accumulate in the future where interest is paid and compounded at a particular rate per period for a certain number of periods.</em>
This can be done using the formula below
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV- Future Value
PV- amount invested, n- number of years, r - interest rate
The amount due after 19 years would be determined in two steps
Step 1: FV of 24,500 at 5.5% for 8 years
FV = 24,500× (1+0.055)^8 =37,599.819
Step 2 : FV of 37599.81962 invested for 11 years at 4.9% p.a
FV = ? P=37,599.81, n- 11, r- 4.9%
FV = 37,599.81 × (1.049)^11= 63,637.94
Future value at the end of 19 years =$63,637.94
