Jensen Co. expects to pay €50,000 in one month for its imports from France. It also expects to receive €200,000 for its exports

to Belgium in one month. Jensen estimates the standard deviation of monthly percentage changes of the euro to be 2.5 percent over the last 50 months. Assume that these percentage changes are normally distributed. Using the value-at-risk (VaR) method based on a 97.5 percent confidence level, what is the maximum one month loss in dollars if the expected percentage change of the euro during next month is 2 percent? Assume that the current spot rate of the euro (before considering the maximum one-month loss) is $1.35.

Answer:

-$5,873

Explanation:

For computation of maximum one month loss in dollars first we need to find out the net exposure and maximum one month loss in percentage which is shown below:-

Net exposure = Received amount - Paid amount

= €200,000 - €50,000

= €150,000

Maximum one - month loss in Percentage = Next month percentage - (Alpha × Euro percentage)

= 2% - (1.96 × 2.5%)

= -2.9%

Maximum one - month loss in Dollars = Net exposure × Current spot rate of the euro × Maximum one - month loss in Percentage

= €150,000 × $1.35 × (-0.029)

= -$5,873

enyata [817]

Answer: $696,000

Explanation:

Given the following;

JULY direct material purchase = $300,000

AUGUST BUDGET

direct material purchase =$480,000

Selling and administrative expenses = $48,000

Depreciation expense = $36,000

Purchase of office equipment = $72,000

Wages expenses = $150,000

Only 70% of the amount of purchases made in a month being paid that month. The remaining 30% paid the next month

Therefore, total Budgeted cash disbursement for the month of August will include ;

30% of July purchase

0.3 × $300,000 = $90,000

70% of August direct material

0.7 × $480,000 = $336,000

Wage expense = $150,000

Office equipment purchase =$72, 000

Selling and administration expenses = $48,000

= $(90,000 + 336,000+ 150,000+72,000+ 48,000) = $696,000.

Helen [10]

Answer:

The gain/loss on the sale of the 15,000 shares is $20,000

Explanation:

The value of the investment as at the end of 2018 using the equity method is computed thus:

Note that 30% of 100,000 shares=30,000 shares

ending value =initial investment+share of profit-share of dividends

ending value =$1,500,000+($300,000*30%)-($100,000*30%)

ending value=$1560000

gain/(loss)=$800,000-($1560000 *15000/30000)

gain/(loss)=$20,000

You have two job offers. Alpha Firm offers a salary of $40,000 per year with no bonuses, while Beta Firmoffers a base salary of
ozzi

Answer:

$40,000 per year; $37,500 per year; $40,000.

Explanation:

From the question above, we are given the following parameters; Alpha Firm offers a salary = $40,000 per year + no bonuses, "Beta Firm offers a base salary of $35,000 per year with a 25% chance that you will receive an annual bonus of $10,000".

So, to answer the question,the expected salary of working for Alpha Firm will surely be = $40,000 per year.

At Beta Firm the expected salary is = $35,000 + 0.25($10,000) = $37,500.

Therefore, if I was risk neutral, the expected value of the year bonus offered by Beta Firm would need to be at least $40,000 for me not to be indifferent to the choice between the two options.
