Theresa Nunn is planning a 30-day vacation on Pulau Penang, Malaysia, one year from now. The present charge for a luxury suite plus meals in Malaysian ringgit (RM) is RM1,045/day. The Malaysian ringgit presently trades at RM3.1350/$. She figures out the dollar cost today for a 30-day stay would be $10,000. The hotel informed her that any increase in its room charges will be limited to any increase in the Malaysian cost of living. Malaysian inflation is expected to be 2.75% per annum, while U. S. inflation is expected to be only 1.25%.a. How many dollars might Theresa expect to need one year hence to pay for her 30-day vacation? Note: Remember, not for one day, but 30 days. b. By what percent will the dollar cost have gone up? Why?

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Present charge = 1045 per day

Trade price of RM = $3.1350/$

Malaysian inflation rate(mr) = 2.75% = 0.0275 per annum

US inflation rate (ur) = 1.25% = 0.0125 per annum

a. How many dollars might Theresa expect to need one year hence to pay for her 30-day vacation?

Trade price * (1 + mr) / (1 + ur)

Cost for 30 days considering inflation :

Present charge * (1 + mr) * 30

= $1045 * 1.0275 * 30

= $32212.125

Cost for 30 days considering inflation / [Trade price * (1 + mr) / (1 + ur)]

$32212.125 / 3.1350 * (1.0275) / (1.0125)

$32212.125 / 3.1814444

= $10125.000

b.) By what percent will the dollar cost have gone up? Why?

Dollar cost would have gone up by 1.25%, this is inferred from the inflation rate of the United States currency, which is the rate which will affe the cost of dollar.
