Assume U.S. GAAP for this question.) For a subsidiary in a hyperinflationary economy, the functional currency should be the:

A)	Local currency.

B)	Subsidiary's operating currency.

Which translation method should be used under a hyperinflationary economy when using U.S. GAAP?

A)	All-current, because dividends are translated at the rate that applied when they were issued.

B)	Temporal, because all non-monetary accounts are re-measured at the historical rate.

C)	Monetary/non-monetary, because all monetary accounts are translated at the historical rate.

The temporal method is more appropriate because all non-monetary accounts are remeasured at the historical rate. Under IFRS, the financials would be restated for inflation, and then translated under the current rate method.
