Country x has currency c1 and country y has currency c2. the nominal exchange rate c2/c1 and gdp deflator p for country x and p* for country y for various years is as follows: year: 2010; nominal exchange rate: 0.58; p=1.88; p* =3.8. year 2011; nominal exchange rate: 0.79; p=2.06; p*=3.88. year: 2012; nominal exchange rate: 0.95; p=2.16; p*=3.95. year 2013; nominal exchange rate 1.13; p=2.22; p*=4.3. assuming c1 is the domestic currency and the previous year is the base year, find the year in which the real exchange rate appreciation is greatest and calculate the percentage increase. a)the year=( )and percentage increase=? b) assuming c1 is the domestic currency, an increase in e will cause price of c2 in term of c1 to ) if the value of e decrease, given that e is increasing, then country y would be experiencing a rate of inflation compared to country xd) if foreign goods are relatively less expensive compared to the domestic goods and assuming that the nominal exchange rate of the currencies is equity, then there is in the real exchange rate.

The gilbert instrument corporation is considering replacing the wood steamer it currently uses to shape guitar sides. the steamer has 6 years of remaining life. if kept,the steamer will have depreciaiton expenses of $650 for five years and $325 for the sixthyear. its current book value is $3,575, and it can be sold on an internet auction site for$4,150 at this time. if the old steamer is not replaced, it can be sold for $800 at the endof its useful life. gilbert is considering purchasing the side steamer 3000, a higher-end steamer, whichcosts $12,000 and has an estimated useful life of 6 years with an estimated salvage value of$1,500. this steamer falls into the macrs 5-year class, so the applicable depreciationrates are 20.00%, 32.00%, 19.20%, 11.52%, 11.52%, and 5.76%. the new steamer is fasterand allows for an output expansion, so sales would rise by $2,000 per year; the newmachine's much greater efficiency would reduce operating expenses by $1,900 per year.to support the greater sales, the new machine would require that inventories increase by$2,900, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $700. gilbert's marginalfederal-plus-state tax rate is 40%, and its wacc is 15%.a. should it replace the old steamer? b. npv of replace = $2,083.51

Let's consider a hypothetical airline, mudlarks airlines. on one of its flights, precious records show that about 15% of people who had tickets for the flights did not take the flight. there are 120 seats on the plane. 1. how many tickets should mudlarks airlines sell for this flight? 2. as an added consideration, suppose that tickets on this flight cost a flat rate of $250. in addition, mudlarks airlines must give any traveler who purchased a seat for the flight, but who cannot travel due to overbooking, a $400 certificate for their trouble. does this change your answer in question one? now, suppose that mudlarks airlines forms a partnership itch another airline, puffin air. their agreement allocates 100 seats on the flight to mudlarks airlines and another 20 seats to puffin air. the 2 airlines sell tickets for the flight independently of each other. 3. assuming the same 15% no show percent for each airline, how many tickets should each sell?
