The exchange rate at the beginning of 2002 was 0.3333 Chad/US$. The exchange rate at the end of 2002 was 0.25 Chad/US$. The average rate for 2002 is 0.3125 Chad/US$. Beginning inventory is 90 Chad. Acer Tool & Die uses FIFO inventory valuation and depreciates fixed assets using the straight-line method. Using the current rate method for the Acer Tool & Die Company, what is the value of total assets after translation? A) $2,600. B) $2,020. C) $1,950. Correct answer is A) The basis for using the all current method is when Functional Currency is NOT the same as Parent's Presentation (reporting) Currency. The basis for using the temporal method is when Functional Currency = Parent's Presentation Currency. With the current rate method, all balance sheet items except for common stock are translated at the current rate. Total assets = 650 / 0.25 = $2,600. |
