Chapman, Inc.'s Mexican subsidiary, V. Gomez Corporation, is expected to pay to Chapman 50 pesos in dividends in 1 year after all foreign and U.S. taxes have been subtracted. The exchange rate in 1 year is expected to be $0.12 per peso. After this, the peso is expected to depreciate against the dollar at a rate of 5% a year forever due to the different inflation rates in the United States and Mexico. The peso-denominated dividend is expected to grow at a rate of 10% a year indefinitely. Chapman owns 10 million shares of V. Gomez. What is the present value of the dividend stream, in dollars, assuming V. Gomez's cost of equity is 12%? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar

- Suppose a U.S. firm buys $200,000 worth of stereo speaker wire from a Mexican manufacturer for delivery in 60 days with payment to be made in 90 days (30 days after the goods are received). The rising U.S. deficit has caused the dollar to depreciate against the peso recently. The current exchange rate is 5.50 pesos per U.S. dollar. The 90-day forward rate is 5.45 pesos/dollar. The firm goes into the forward market today and buys enough Mexican pesos at the 90-day forward rate to completely cover its trade obligation.

- In Japan, Honda’s export price per vehicle was 5 million yen when the exchange rate was 125 yen per US dollar ($). The expected inflation rate in the Japanese yen for next year is 1%. The standard inflation rate in the US is 3%. Honda is actively trying to limit the passing exchange rate changes in prices to 60% of annual changes (i.e., if, for example, the US dollar depreciates by 10% against the yen, Honda will consider depreciation of the US dollar by only 6% (=0.60*10%) to calculate the new prices of its vehicles in US dollars). What was the price in $ of a Honda at the beginning of the year?
