Assume Costner Corporation, a U. S.-based MNC, invests 2,500,000 Zambian kwacha (ZMK) for a one-year period at a nominal interest rate of 9%. At the time the loan is extended, the spot rate of the kwacha is $.00060. If the spot rate of the kwacha in one year is $.00056, the dollar amount initially invested in Zambia is $, and $ are paid out after one year.

$1500 ; $1526

Explanation:

Given the following :

Invested amount = ZMK 2,500,000

Period = 1 year

Nominal Interst rate = 9%

Spot rate of ZMK in one year = $0.00056

Spot rate at time of loan extension = $0.00060

Therefore,

Dollar amount initially invested equals;

Invested amount * spot rate at time of loan extension

2,500,000 * $0.00060 = $1500

Dollar amount paid after one year:

Invested amount * nominal interest rate * one year spot rate

(2,500,000 * (1+9%) * 0.00056)

(2,500,000 * 1.09 * 0.00056)

= $1526

e would be the answer

3rd the reason why is because of management and leadership
