This document discusses foreign currency transactions and financial instruments. It begins by explaining foreign exchange rates, including direct and indirect exchange rates. It then provides examples of how exchange rates impact transactions when a currency strengthens or weakens. The document outlines the accounting for foreign currency transactions, including recording transactions at the spot rate on the transaction date and adjusting balances to the current rate on the balance sheet date. It provides an example to illustrate this two-transaction approach. Finally, it introduces how entities can use foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge against currency risk from international transactions.

Currency exchange and risk management - International Business - Manu Melwin Joymanumelwin
Transaction risk - This type of risk is primarily associated with imports and exports. If a company exports goods on credit then it has a figure for debtors in its accounts. The amount it will finally receive depends on the foreign exchange movement from the transaction date to the settlement date.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

2. Understand how to make
calculations using foreign
currency exchange rates.
3. Foreign Exchange
A receivable or payable:
• denominated in a currency of payment
• Measured in a currency of financial records
• Local currency of buying or selling entity
• Exchange rates – prices for currencies
expressed in units of other currency.
4. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
DER (Direct Exchange Rate) or direct quotation
is identified as American terms (local
currency)
• Number of local currency units (LCUs) to
obtain one foreign currency units (FCUs)
• To indicate that it is U.S. dollar–based and
represents an exchange rate quote from
the perspective of a person in the United
States
US dollar – equivalent value (LCU)
1FCU
DER =
5. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Example: if $1.20 can acquire €1, DER of the
dollar vs the euro is $1.20
$1.20
€1
DER = = $1.20
6. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
IER (Indirect Exchange Rate) or indirect quotation
is identified as European terms (foreign currency)
• Reciprocal of DER
• To indicate the direct exchange rate from the
perspective of a person in Europe, which
means the exchange rate shows the number
of units of the European’s local currency
units per one U.S. dollar
• From the viewpoint of a U.S. entity:
1 FCU
U.S. dollar – equivalent value (LCU)
IER =
7. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
€1
$1.20
IER = = €0.8333
Example: if $1.20 can acquire €1, DER of the
dollar vs the euro is $1.20
8. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Changes in exchange rates
Strengthening of the U.S. dollar—direct
exchange rate decreases, implies:
• Taking less U.S. currency (LCU) to
acquire one FCU
• One U.S. dollar acquiring more FCUs
Weakening of the U.S. dollar—direct
exchange rate increases, implies:
• Taking more U.S. currency (LCU)to
acquire one FCU
• One U.S. dollar acquiring fewer FCUs
9. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Floating exchange rate
Reflects buying power in world market
Fixed and multiple exchange rate
The issuing government able to set (fix) different
rates for different kind of transactions.
10. Changes in Exchange Rates
Example: the exchange rate of the US dollar vs the
euro changed as follows during 2005 -2006
Strengthening: $1.35 = €1 to $1.20 = €1
Weakening: $1.20 = €1 to $1.28 = €1
12. Example: A European manufacturer is selling a
German made automobile for €25,000. Determine
the US dollar equivalent value of €25,000 on
January 1:
US dollar-equivalent value (LCU) = FCU X DER
€25,000 X $1.35 = $33,750
July 1:
US dollar-equivalent value (LCU) = FCU X DER
€25,000 X $1.20 = $30,000
DER Decrease – US dollar strengthening
13. Example: A US manufacturer is selling a US made
machine for $10,000. Determine the foreign currency
(euro) equivalent value of $10,000 on
January 1:
Foreign currency-equivalent value =
US $ unit (LCU) X DER
$10,000 X €0.74 = €7,400
July 1:
Foreign currency-equivalent value =
US $ unit (LCU) X DER
$10,000 X €0.83 = €8,300
DER Decrease – US dollar strengthening
14. • Taking less US currency to acquire one foreign
currency unit.
• One US dollar acquiring more foreign currency
units
DER Decrease – US dollar strengthening
16. DER Increases – US dollar weakening
• DER increases from $1.20 = €1 to $1.28 = €1
• More US currency to acquire 1 euro
The weakening of US dollar:
• Taking more US currency to acquire one foreign
currency unit.
• One US dollar acquiring fewer foreign currency
unit.
17. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
• The spot rate:
The exchange rate for immediate delivery of
currencies exchanged.
• The current rate:
The rate at which one unit of currency can
be exchange for another currency at the
balance sheet date or the transaction date.
• The historical rate:
The rate in effect at the date a specific
transaction or event occurred.
18. Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
• Forward Exchange Rates
• The forward rate on a given date is not the
same as the spot rate on the same date.
• Expectations about the relative value of
currencies are built into the forward rate.
• The Spread:
The difference between the forward rate
and the spot rate on a given date.
• Gives information about the perceived
strengths or weaknesses of currencies
20. Foreign Currency Transactions
• Foreign currency transactions are economic
activities denominated in a currency other
than the entity’s recording currency
(company’s financial statement denomination
currency)
• These include:
1. Purchases or sales of goods or services (imports
or exports), the prices of which are stated in a
foreign currency
2. Loans payable or receivable in a foreign currency
3. Purchase or sale of foreign currency forward
exchange contracts
4. Purchase or sale of foreign currency units
21. Foreign Currency Transactions
• For financial statement purposes, transactions
denominated in a foreign currency (foreign
denomination) must be translated into the
currency the reporting company uses (financial
statement denomination)
• At each balance sheet date, account balances
denominated in a currency other than the
entity’s reporting currency must be adjusted to
reflect changes in exchange rates during the
period
• The adjustment in equivalent U.S . dollar values is a
foreign currency transaction gain or loss for the
entity when exchange rates have changed
22. Example: Foreign Currency Transactions
Assume that a U.S. company acquires €5,000 from
its bank on January 1, 20X1, for use in future
purchases from German companies. The direct
exchange rate is $1.20 = €1; thus, the company
pays the bank $6,000 for €5,000, as follows:
U.S. dollar equivalent value (LCU) =
Foreign currency units (FCU) x Direct exchange rate (DER)
€5,000 x $1.20 = $6,000
23. Example: Foreign Currency Transactions
The following entry records this exchange of
currencies:
January 1, 20X1
(1) Foreign Currency Unit (€) 6,000
Cash 6,000
24. Example: Foreign Currency Transactions
On July 2, 20X1, the exchange rate is $1.100 = €1.
The following adjusting entry is required in
preparing financial statements on July 1:
July 1, 20X1
(2) Foreign Currency Transaction Loss 500
Foreign Currency Unit (€) 500
Equivalent $ value of €5,000, Jan 1:
€5,000 X $1,200 $6,000
Equivalent $ value of €5,000, July 1:
€5,000 X $1,100 5,500
Foreign currency transaction loss $500
25. Foreign Currency Import Export
Transactions
Foreign currency import and export transactions
– Required accounting overview (assuming the
company does not use forward contracts)
Transaction date:
Record the purchase or sale transaction at
the U.S. dollar–equivalent value (LCU) using
the spot direct exchange rate on this date
26. Foreign currency import and export transactions
– Required accounting overview (assuming the
company does not use forward contracts)
Balance sheet (reporting) date:
• Adjust the payable or receivable to its U.S.
dollar–equivalent (LCU), end-of-period
value using the current direct exchange
rate
• Recognize any exchange gain or loss for the
change in rates between the transaction
and balance sheet dates
Foreign Currency Import Export
Transactions
27. Foreign currency import and export transactions –
Required accounting overview (assuming the
company does not use forward contracts)
Settlement date:
• Adjust the foreign currency payable or
receivable for any changes in the exchange
rate between the balance sheet date (or
transaction date) and the settlement date,
recording any exchange gain or loss as
required.
• Record the settlement of the foreign
currency payable or receivable
28. Foreign Currency Transactions
The two-transaction approach
• Views the purchase or sale of an item as a
separate transaction from the foreign
currency commitment.
• The FASB established that foreign currency
exchange gains or losses resulting from the
revaluation of assets or liabilities
denominated in a foreign currency (FCU)
must be recognized currently in the income
statement of the period in which the
exchange rate changes.
29. Illustration of Foreign Purchase Transaction
A purchase of goods from a foreign supplier
denominated in either local or foreign currency:
1. Oct 1, 20X1, Peerless Products, a US company,
acquired goods on account from Tokyo
Industries, a Japanese company, for $14,000 or
2,000,000 yen.
2. Peerless Product prepared financial statement at
its year end of Dec 31, 20X1.
3. Settlement of the payable was made on April 1,
20X2.

34. Understand how to hedge
international currency risk
using foreign currency forward
exchange financial
instruments.
35. Managing International Currency Risk
with Foreign Currency Forward
Exchange Financial Instruments
The accounting for derivatives and hedging
activities is guided by three standards:
133 138 149
Amendments of importance to
multinational entities
Specific implementation
issues
FASB Statement No.
Defined derivatives and
established the general rule of
recognizing all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the
balance sheet and measuring
those financial instruments at
fair value
36. Managing International Currency Risk with Foreign
Currency Forward Exchange Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is cash, evidence of
ownership, or a contract that both:
1. imposes on one entity a contractual obligation to
deliver cash or another instrument, and
2. conveys to the second entity that contractual right
to receive cash or another financial instrument.
A derivative is a financial instrument or other
contract whose value is “derived from” some
other item that has a variable value over time.
37. Managing International Currency Risk with Foreign
Currency Forward Exchange Financial Instruments
Characteristics of derivatives:
• The financial instrument must contain one or more
underlyings and one or more notional amounts, which
specify the terms of the financial instrument.
• The financial instrument/ contract requires no initial
net investment or an initial net investment that is
smaller than required for other types of contracts
expected to have a similar response to changes in
market factors.
38. Managing International Currency Risk with Foreign
Currency Forward Exchange Financial Instruments
Characteristics of derivatives:
The contract terms:
• Require or permit net settlement
• Provide for the delivery of an asset that puts the
recipient in an economic position not substantially
different from net settlement, or
• Allow for the contract to be readily settled net by a
market or other mechanism outside the contract
39. Derivatives Designated as Hedges
Two criteria to be met for a derivative instrument to
qualify as a hedging instrument:
1. Sufficient documentation must be provided at the
beginning of the hedge term to identify the objective
and strategy of the hedge, the hedging instrument
and the hedged item, and how the hedge’s
effectiveness will be assessed on an ongoing basis.
2. The hedge must be highly effective throughout its
term
• Effectiveness is measured by evaluating the
hedging instrument’s ability to generate changes in
fair value that offset the changes in value of the
hedged item.
40. Derivatives Designated as Hedges
Fair value hedges are designated to hedge the
exposure to potential changes in the fair value
of:
a) a recognized asset or liability such as available-
for-sale investments, or
b) an unrecognized firm commitment for which a
binding agreement exists.
The net gains and losses on the hedged asset or
liability and the hedging instrument are
recognized in current earnings on the statement
of income.
41. Derivatives Designated as Hedges
Cash flow hedges
Designated to hedge the exposure to potential
changes in the anticipated cash flows, either into
or out of the company, for
• a recognized asset or liability such as future
interest payments on variable-interest debt, or
• a forecasted cash transaction such as a
forecasted purchase or sale.
42. Derivatives Designated as Hedges
Cash flow hedges
Changes in the fair market value are separated
into an effective portion and an ineffective
portion.
• The net gain or loss on the effective portion of
the hedging instrument should be reported in
other comprehensive income
• The gain or loss on the ineffective portion is
reported in current earnings on the statement
of income.
43. Derivatives Designated as Hedges
Foreign currency hedges are hedges in which
the hedged item is denominated in a foreign
currency
• A fair value hedge of a firm commitment to
enter into a foreign currency transaction
• A cash flow hedge of a forecasted foreign
currency transaction
• A hedge of a net investment in a foreign
operation.
44. Forward Exchange Contracts
Forward Exchange Contracts
• Contracted through a dealer, usually a bank
• Possibly customized to meet contracting
company’s terms and needs
• Typically no margin deposit required
• Must be completed either with the
underlying’s future delivery or net cash
settlement
45. Forward Exchange Contracts
FASB 133 establishes a basic rule of fair value
for accounting for forward exchange contracts
• Changes in the fair value are recognized in
the accounts, but the specific accounting for
the change depends on the purpose of the
hedge
• For forward exchange contracts, the basic
rule is to use the forward exchange rate to
value the forward contract
46. Managing an Exposed Foreign Currency Net Asset or
Liability Position: Not a Designated Hedging Instrument
• This case presents the most common use of foreign
currency forward contracts, which is to manage a part
of the foreign currency exposure from accounts
payable or accounts receivable denominated in a
foreign currency.
• Note that the company has entered into a foreign
currency forward contract but that the contract does
not qualify for or the company does not designate the
forward contract as a hedging instrument.
Forward Exchange Contracts
47. Illustration
Assume the following:
1. On October 1, 20X1, Peerless Product purchases goods
on account from Tokyo Industries in the amount of
2,000,000 yen.
2. This transaction is denominated in yen, and Peerless
Products offsets its exposed foreign currency liability
with a forward exchange contract for the receipt of
2,000,000 yen from a foreign exchange broker.
3. The term of the forward exchange contract equals the
six-month credit period extended by Tokyo Industries.
4. December 31 is the year-end of Peerless Products, and
the payable is settle on April 1, 20X2.
