Culver Corporation had the following long-term receivable account balances at December 31, 2019.

Notes receivable $1,850,000
Notes receivable - Employees 500,000


Transactions during 2020 and other information relating to Culver's' long-term receivables were as follows:

1. The $1,850,000 note receivable is dated May 1, 2019, bears interest at 9%, and represents the balance of the consideration received from the sale of Culver's's electronics division to Sunland Company. Principal payments of $616,667 plus appropriate interest are due on May 1, 2020, 2021, and 2022. The first principal and interest payment was made on May 1, 2020. Collection of the note instalments is reasonably assured.
2. The $500,000 note receivable is dated December 31, 2019, bears interest at 8%, and is due on December 31, 2022. The note is due from Marcia Cumby, president of Culver Corporation, and is secured by 10,000 Culver's common shares. Interest is payable annually on December 31, and the interest payment was made on December 31, 2020. The quoted market price of Culver's's common shares was $45 per share on December 31, 2020.
3. On April 1, 2020, Culver's sold a patent to Blossom Company in exchange for a $200,000 non–interest-bearing note due on April 1, 2022. There was no established exchange price for the patent, and the note had no ready market. The prevailing rate of interest for a note of this type at April 1, 2020, was 12%. The present value of $1 for two periods at 12% is 0.79719 (use this factor). The patent had a carrying amount of $38,000 at January 1, 2020, and the amortization for the year ended December 31, 2020 would have been $7,000. The collection of the note receivable from Blossom is reasonably assured.
4. On July 1, 2020, Culver's sold a parcel of land to Splish Brothers Inc. for $220,000 under an instalment sale contract. Splish Brothers made a $62,000 cash down payment on July 1, 2020, and signed a four-year, 11% note for the $158,000 balance. The equal annual payments of principal and interest on the note will be $50,927, payable on July 1, 2021, through July 1, 2024. The land could have been sold at an established cash price of $200,000. Culver's had paid $155,000 for the land when it purchased it. Collection of the instalments on the note is reasonably assured.
5. On August 1, 2020, Culver's agreed to allow its customer, Saini Inc., to substitute a six-month note for accounts receivable of $200,000 it owed. The note bears interest at 6% and principal and interest are due on the note’s maturity date.

The spot exchange rate between the dollar and the Brazilian real is a flexible rate. What are the effects of each of the following events on this exchange rate? Evaluate the effect of each event independently of the others. It is sufficient to identify whether the U.S. dollar appreciates or depreciates.

  1. There is a decrease in Brazilian demand for U.S.-made vehicles as the Brazilian economy is in a recession.  
  2. There is an increase in the U.S. demand for Brazilian-made aircraft.  
  3. Political uncertainties in the U.S. lead Brazilian investors to shift their financial investments out of the U.S. and back to Brazil.
  4. U.S. demand for Brazilian financial assets increases as inflation in Brazil decreases.

True or false:

1) A country with negative net exports has a trade surplus.

2) When net capital outflow is negative, it means that on net the value of domestic assets purchased by foreigners exceeds the value of foreign assets purchased by domestic residents.

3) By itself, when a Japanese bank purchases a bond issued by a U.S. corporation, U.S. net capital outflow rises.

4) By itself, if a U.S. firm builds a new factory overseas, U.S. net capital outflow rises.

5) If a German firm buys goods from a U.S. firm with dollars it obtains by exchanging euros for dollars, both U.S. net exports and U.S. net capital outflow increase.
