1. Fоreign Currency Exchаnge (15 pts): Yоu аre the Treаsurer at a U.S. multinatiоnal corporation. Your firm just purchased some supplies from 3 different vendors in Japan, Germany and India and the contract with each supplier calls for payment to be made in the home currency of the supplier. The Japanese supplier provided materials worth $50,000, the German supplier $100,000 and the Indian supplier $150,000. Using the spot exchange rates below, determine how much you must pay each of these suppliers in their local currency. Country/Currency Exchange Rate Japan - yen ¥109.5314/$ Germany - euro $1.2207/€ India - rupee INR 72.4986/$ 2. Apple iPhone 12 - India & China Components (25 pts): Apple continues to be a top seller in the smartphone market with its popular iPhone product. Apple's latest model is the iPhone 12. Apple purchases its displays for the iPhone from suppliers in India and has all final assembly and testing completed in China. The company has recently completed a cost savings initiative on the iPhone 12 which resulted in a cost reduction on the entire iPhone by 3.5%. The cost of the iPhone 12 before the cost savings initiative was $475. The display makes up 12% of the total iPhone costs and the final assembly and test 25% of the total iPhone costs. The Indian economy continues to struggle and as a result, the company's foreign exchange broker is anticipating the Indian rupee will decrease in value by as much as 15% compared to the U.S. dollar. Additionally, China continues to be under pressure to allow the yuan to free float and the Company believes if this is allowed to happen the yuan could increase in value compared to the U.S. dollar by as much as 20%. How would a 15% depreciation of the rupee against the dollar and a 20% increase in value of the Chinese yuan versus the U.S. dollar impact total iPhone 12 costs? Should the company be concerned all or part of the cost savings initiative would be wiped out by these exchange rate changes? Show all your calculations supporting your position. 3. Micca Metals Hedge (50 pts): Micca Metals, Inc. is a specialty materials and metals company located in Detroit, Michigan. The company specializes in specific precious metals and materials which are used in a variety of pigment applications in many other industries including cosmetics, appliances, and a variety of high tinsel metal fabricating equipment.

Six-month put options on 6,000,000 dirhams at an exercise price of 10.35 dirhams per dollar are available at a premium of 3%. The spot exchange rate for the dirhams/$ is 10.20 and the six-month forward rate for the dirhams/$ is 10.07. The U.S. six-month interest rate for borrowing (per annum) is 6.0% and the six-month interest rate for investing (per annum) is 4.0%.

Compare and contrast alternative ways that Micca might hedge its foreign exchange transaction exposure. Show all of your calculations for each alternative. Make a recommendation to Micca’s Treasury team and provide your rationale. 4. Wenceslas Refining Company – Capital Budget (60 pts): S. based and privately owned Wenceslas Refining Company is considering investing in the Czech Republic so as to have a refinery source closer to its European customers. The original investment in Czech korunas would amount to K250 million all in fixed assets, which will be depreciated over ten years by the straight-line method with no salvage value. Dividends to Wenceslas will only be made when the Czech project reaches positive net income for a year. When net income is positive for a year, 80% of net income will be repatriated as dividends to the United States. After three years the subsidiary would be sold to Czech investors for $7,000,000. Unit demand is expected to be 300,000 in year 1 and then ramp significantly to 1,500,000 in year 2 and 1,800,000 in year 3. Unit sales price is estimated to be K300.00 for years 1 & 2 and K280.00 for year 3. Variable manufacturing costs are expected to be 50% of sales. Fixed costs are expected to be K30,000,000 in year 1 and grow by a 1.5% Czech inflation rate for years 2 and 3. The spot rate (K/$) at the time of the original investment is expected to be 31.00 and then anticipated to change in value over time according to purchasing power parity. The Czech inflation rate was provided earlier at 1.5% and the U.S. inflation rate is estimated to be 2.3%. The Czech Republic corporate tax rate is 25% and the Wenceslas Tax Department has indicated that any annual dividends paid to Wenceslas from the Czech project will be subject to a 15% withholding tax, but no other taxes. Wenceslas uses 12% as its weighted average cost of capital along with an 8% premium for international projects. Additionally, the WACC for the Czech Republic project is estimated to be 32%. Consider the investment by calculating the NPV and IRR from a project and parent viewpoint. Is the investment attractive to Wenceslas Refining? Explain your rationale.
