Eximco Corporation (based in Champaign, Illinois) has a number of transactions with companies in the country of Mongagua, where the currency is the mong. On November 30, 2017, Eximco sold equipment at a price of 500,000 mongs to a Mongaguan customer that will make payment on January 31, 2018. In addition, on November 30, 2017, Eximco purchased raw materials from a Mongaguan supplier at a price of 300,000 mongs; it will make payment on January 31, 2018. To hedge its net exposure in mongs, Eximco entered into a two-month forward contract on November 30, 2017, to deliver 200,000 mongs to the foreign currency broker in exchange for $104,000. Eximco properly designates its forward contract as a fair value hedge of a foreign currency receivable. The following rates for the mong apply:

Date Spot Rate Forward Rate (to January 31, 2018)

November 30, 2017 $ 0.53 $ 0.52

December 31, 2017 0.50 0.48

January 31, 2018 0.49 N/A

Eximco's incremental borrowing rate is 12 percent. The present value factor for one month at an annual interest rate of 12 percent (1 percent per month) is 0.9901.

a. Prepare all journal entries, including December 31 adjusting entries, to record these transactions and the forward contract.

Based on past experience, Leickner Company expects to purchase raw materials from a foreign supplier at a cost of 1,100,000 marks on March 15, 2018. To hedge this forecasted transaction, the company acquires a three-month call option to purchase 1,100,000 marks on December 15, 2017. Leickner selects a strike price of $0.81 per mark, paying a premium of $0.002 per unit, when the spot rate is $0.81. The spot rate increases to $0.817 at December 31, 2017, causing the fair value of the option to increase to $9,000. By March 15, 2018, when the raw materials are purchased, the spot rate has climbed to $0.83, resulting in a fair value for the option of $22,000.

a. Prepare all journal entries for the option hedge of a forecasted transaction and for the purchase of raw materials, assuming that December 31 is Leickner's year-end and that the raw materials are included in the cost of goods sold in 2018.

b. What is the overall impact on net income over the two accounting periods?

c. What is the net cash outflow to acquire the raw materials
