...Review of Short answer questions Ch 1 Q Why Do Foreigners Hold U.S. Currency? The dollar is preferred to many other currencies because it is a relatively stable source of purchasing power and widely accepted. It also tends to be the international pricing currency for products traded on a global market, and commodities such as oil, gold, etc The US dollar is one of the primary reserve currencies used worldwide. A reserve currency, also called an anchor currency, is a currency that is held in significant quantities by numerous governments and central banks as part of their foreign exchange reserves. These currencies are used to transact global business, and are the pricing currency for global trade. The amount of foreign exchange reserves that a country can claim is used as an indicator of the ability to repay foreign debt, and is used in sovereign credit ratings. Reserves are also used for currency defense—to halt downward or upward pressure on a currency against a benchmark currency The dollar is also very popular in Eastern Europe, especially in the former Soviet Union, where inflation, declining exchange rates, and currency recalls have made the ruble a poor store of value. China’s policy of intervening in currency markets to limit the appreciation of its currency against the dollar (and other currencies) has made it the world’s largest and fastest growing holder of foreign exchange reserves, especially U.S. dollars. China has invested a large share of these...

...Pablo Fernandez IESE Business School, University of Navarra Ch 12 Equity Premium: Historical, Expected, Required and Implied Equity Premium: Historical, Expected, Required and Implied Pablo Fernandez Professor of Finance. IESE Business School, University of Navarra Camino del Cerro del Aguila 3. 28023 Madrid, Spain e-mail: fernandezpa@iese.edu January 29, 2013 The equity premium designates four different concepts: Historical Equity Premium (HEP); Expected Equity Premium (EEP); Required Equity Premium (REP); and Implied Equity Premium (IEP). We highlight the confusing message in the literature regarding the equity premium and its evolution. The confusion arises from not distinguishing among the four concepts and from not recognizing that although the HEP is equal for all investors, the REP, the EEP and the IEP differ for different investors. A unique IEP requires assuming homogeneous expectations for the expected growth (g), but we show that there are several pairs (IEP, g) that satisfy current prices. We claim that different investors have different REPs and that it is impossible to determine the REP for the market as a whole, because it does not exist. We also investigate the relationship between (IEP – g) and the risk free rate. There is a kind of schizophrenic approach to valuation: while all authors admit different expectations of equity cash flows, most authors look for a unique discount rate. It seems as if the expectations of equity cash flows are formed in a...

...implementing competitive strategy in accordance with that vision. As the capstone course in the undergraduate business curriculum, this course builds on functional business areas such as marketing, accounting, finance, and management information systems. What sets this course apart from the other more functional courses is that we will take the perspective of the general manager and integrate functional knowledge into our understanding of the firm as a whole while seeking to establish a strong competitive position. To understand how a firm can develop its strategic position, we will study many contemporary strategic management theories and issues. These theories and concepts will provide you with the tools necessary to conceptualize a firm’s competitive environment and resources, as well as to formulate strategic recommendations to enhance the strategic competitiveness of a firm. In this course, we will use real business cases and examples to apply the concepts and tools presented. Given that a real business environment does not generally pose clear questions or answers, there are no right or wrong solutions to the cases which we will undertake to analyze. Therefore, the most important aspect of this course is the quality of your thought processes and the quality of your questions and answers. Also important is your ability to...
