Carlton Corporation entered into a three-year cross currency interest rate swap to receive U. S dollars and pay Swiss francs. The notional principal is $10 million. The 3-year swap rates are quoted in the next table: Swiss Franc U. S. dollar
Bid Ask Bid Ask
2.51% 251% 5.72% 5.79%
Assume the current spot exchange rate is S SF1.5/$.
1. How much U. S. dollars will Carlton receive in year 1 as a result of the currency swap?
2. How much Swiss francs will Carlton pay in year 1 as a result of the currency swap?
3. Carlton, however, decided to unwind the swap after one year - thereby having two years left on the settlement costs of unwinding the swap after one year. Assume the current spot exchange rate when the swap is terminated one year later is S = SF1.4650/$, and the Swiss interest rate is 2.00%, and US interest rate is 5.5% at that time. What is the present value of the U. S. dollar cash flows Carlton could have received if the swap contract were not terminated?
4. In the above question where the currency swap contract was terminated after one year, what is the present value of the Swiss franc cash flows Carlton would have paid if the swap contract were not terminated? Assume again the current spot exchange rate when the swap is terminated one year later is S = SF1.4650/$, and the Swiss interest rate is 2.00%, and US interest rate is 5.5% at that time.
5. In the above, what is the settlement payment Carlton has to make if the current exchange rate of S = SF1.4650/$.

“wonderful! not only did our salespeople do a good job in meeting the sales budget this year, but our production people did a good job in controlling costs as well,” said kim clark, president of martell company. “our $11,150 overall manufacturing cost variance is only 3% of the $1,536,000 standard cost of products made during the year. that’s well within the 3% parameter set by management for acceptable variances. it looks like everyone will be in line for a bonus this year.” the company produces and sells a single product. the standard cost card for the product follows: standard cost card—per unit direct materials, 4.00 feet at $4.00 per foot $ 16.00 direct labor, 1.1 direct labor-hours at $13 per direct labor-hour 14.30 variable overhead, 1.1 direct labor-hours at $2.40 per direct labor-hour 2.64 fixed overhead, 1.1 direct labor-hours at $6.50 per direct labor-hour 7.15 standard cost per unit $ 40.09the following additional information is available for the year just completed: a. the company manufactured 20,000 units of product during the year.b. a total of 77,000 feet of material was purchased during the year at a cost of $4.25 per foot. all of this material was used to manufacture the 20,000 units. there were no beginning or ending inventories for the year.c. the company worked 24,000 direct labor-hours during the year at a direct labor cost of $12.50 per hour.d. overhead is applied to products on the basis of standard direct labor-hours. data relating to manufacturing overhead costs follow: denominator activity level (direct labor-hours) 19,000 budgeted fixed overhead costs $ 123,500 actual variable overhead costs incurred $ 64,800 actual fixed overhead costs incurred $ 120,900required: 1. compute the materials price and quantity variances for the year.

Sarah salesrep is brand new to her job selling "lifetime" printers that never need replacement ink cartridges. the problem is that these printers cost ten times more than a regular printer, so it is difficult to get prospective buyers to understand the cost savings of buying it. to break through the barrier and begin making sales, sarah should use a analysis that highlights her printer's lower cost.
