LOS b: Analyze the impact of changes in exchange rates on the translated sales of the subsidiary and parent company.

 

 

Edmonton Oilfield Supply has made an equipment sale in Venezuela in the amount of VEF 15,000,000. On the day of the sale, the exchange rate is 1.7519 VEF per 1 Canadian dollar. 90 days later, when the Venezuelan firm pays for the equipment, the exchange rate is 1.6326. As a result of the change in the exchange rate, Edmonton will recognize a:

A)
 gain of $625,666.
B)
 loss of $1,789,500.
C)
 gain of $1,096,104.

 

On the day of the sale, Edmonton will record an account receivable of 15m/1.7519 = $8,562,133. When the payment is received and converted to CAD, the realized amount will be 15m/1.6326 = $9,187,799. As a result of the appreciating VEF, Edmonton will realize a gain of $9,187,799 ? 8,562,133 = CAD 625,666.

A Canadian firm owns a foreign subsidiary in the U.S. In 2002, sales were USD1,000,000 and the USD/CAD exchange rate was 0.6329. In 2003, sales were also USD1,000,000 but the exchange rate was 0.7484. What is the impact of the change in the value of the CAD on the parent company’s translated sales? Sales will:

A)
 increase by 18%.
B)
 decrease by 18%.
C)
 decline by 15%.

While sales were flat at USD 1,000,000 in local currency terms, after translation the parent firm would report sales of CAD 1,336,184 for 2003 (= USD 1,000,000 / 0.7484) versus sales of CAD 1,580,028 for 2002 (= USD 1,000,000 / 0.6329). The 15% sales decline reported by the Canadian firm (CAD 1,336,184 versus CAD 1,580,028) is a flow effect. Even though there was no sales growth in the subsidiary, the parent firm still shows a 15% decrease in revenues from the subsidiary due solely to exchange rate effects. Note that because the subsidiary sales are constant the total exchange rate effect can be measured as (0.6329 / 0.7484) ? 1 = ?0.15.

A U.S. firm owns a foreign subsidiary in France. In 2002, sales were EUR 1,000,000 and the USD/EUR exchange rate was 1.0620. In 2003, sales were EUR 1,100,000 and the exchange rate was 1.1417. What is the impact of the change in the value of the USD on the parent company’s translated sales?

A)
 Sales will decrease by 7.5%.
B)
 Sales will increase by 18.25%.
C)
 Sales will increase by 7.5%.

The increase in sales due to the appreciating EUR is measured as 7.5% [= (1.1417 / 1.0620) ? 1]. Sales for the subsidiary rose 10% [= (1,100,000 / 1,000,000) – 1] in the local currency (EUR). After translation the parent firm will report sales of USD 1,062,000 (= EUR 1,000,000 × 1.0620) for 2002 and USD 1,255,870 (= EUR 1,100,000 × 1.1417) for 2003.
Growth measured from the parent’s perspective suggests sales rose 18.25% [= (1,255,870 / 1,062,000) ? 1], but this includes the growth rate in sales measured in the local currency and the rate of appreciation in the foreign currency, or (1.10 × 1.075) ? 1 = 0.1825. The question only asks for the impact of the change in the value of the USD.
