Answer:

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

Explanation:

As per Interest Rate Parity Theory

Spot Rate : 1$ = 100

Forward Rate : 1 $ = 110

r = 9/12

As per interest rate parity, forward rate = Spot rate(1+Interest rate Japan)/(1+Interest rate US)

Forward rate = Spot rate *(1+ iD)/(1+iF)

110 / 100 = (1 + Japan Interest Rate * 9 /12)  / 1.01125

1.1 * 1.01125 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

1.112375 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 1.112375 - 1

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 0.112375

Japan Interest Rate = 0.112375 / 0.75

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%

*Suppose the actual variable expenses are the same as budgeted variable expenses.

Variable expenses are those expenses that vary directly with the number of units produced ( example more desks and more chairs will require more material).

natulia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) 150,000 board feet.

Explanation:

In order to meet domestic demand, Norway must import the goods produced in other countries, which means that there is no price increase due to the shortage of the good.

If Norway only produces 50,000 board feets and the demand is 200,000, then it will be forced to introduce the missing amount that comes from other countries.
