Answer:

4.76%

Explanation:

The computation of dollar rate of return is shown below:-

Initial investment in USD = 100,000        

Converted to Japanese Yen at Yen 100 ÷ 1 USD = 10,000,000      

Stock Price in Yen = 100        

Number of shares purchased = 100,000

At year end sale price at 110 = 11,000,000

Out of this proceed, the investor will sold 10,000,000 Yen as per Forward contract at 105 Yen/USD and rest 1,000,000 at 110 Yen/USD

Dollar Proceed                                  Equivalent USD

10,000,000 Yen at 105 Yen/USD        95,238

(10,000,000 ÷ 105)

1,000,000 Yen at 110 Yen/USD            9,091

(1,000,000 Yen ÷ 110)

Dollar proceed                                       104,329

Return as a Percentage = ((Sale value - Purchase value) ÷ Purchase value) × 100

= (($95,238 - $90,909) ÷ $90,909) × 100

= $4,329 ÷ $90,909 × 100

= 4.76%

Abbit Co uses LIFO for it's inventory valuation. Given the historical cost of product Z is $60, the selling price of product Z i
Tom [10]

Answer:

$41

Explanation:

The last-in, first-out inventory valuation method establishes that the inventory will be valued at the same price as the last units purchased or produced. This system considers that the last units that enter our merchandise inventory are the first ones to be sold.

In Abbit's case, the last units to enter their inventory cost $41 per unit (replacement cost). SO if we use the LIFO system then we will use the $41 per unit cost.
