In a hyperinflationary economy, translation under the all-current method will most likely result in relatively:

A)
low balance sheet values for long term liabilities.
B)
high balance sheet values for long term assets.
C)
high translation gains.



In a hyperinflationary economy, translation under the all-current method will most likely result in relatively low balance sheet values for assets and liabilities. Translation losses will also occur.

The temporal method (remeasurement) is preferred to the all-current method (translation) in hyperinflationary economies because remeasurement:

A)
is easier than translation to perform under hyperinflation.
B)
results in non-monetary asset values that are a better proxy for the economic values of those assets (versus the all-current method).
C)
provides better conversions of subsidiary revenues.



Remeasurement results in non-monetary asset values that are a better proxy for the economic values of those assets than those obtained under the all-current method. Both remeasurement and translation convert revenues and SG&A at the average rate so there could be no clear preference when considering these measures.

Which translation method should be used under a hyperinflationary economy?

A)
Temporal, because all non-monetary accounts are re-measured at the historical rate.
B)
All-current, because dividends are translated at the rate that applied when they were issued.
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.

In reality, what best describes the real value of non-monetary assets and liabilities in a hyperinflationary environment?

A)
Typically not affected because their local currency-denominated values decrease to offset the impact of inflation.
B)
Typically not affected because their local currency-denominated values increase to offset the impact of inflation.
C)
All non-monetary accounts are re-measured at the current rate.



Typically not affected because their local currency-denominated values increase to offset the impact of inflation (i.e., real estate values typically rise with inflation).

C)
quickly deteriorate and the foreign currency will be rapidly depreciating against the reporting currency.
