选项:
A.decreased because of changes in the domestic currency
value of foreign asset holdings
increased because of changes in the domestic currency
value of UK assets but decreased because of changes in the domestic currency
value of German assets
increased because of changes in the domestic currency
value of foreign asset holdings
解释:
Correct Answer: C
The domestic
currency value of Dias's portfolio of foreign assets most likely increased
because of changes in the domestic currency value of foreign asset holdings.
The domestic currency return of the portfolio of foreign assets is:
RDC = w1[(1
+ RFC,GBP)(1 + RFX,GBP) -1]+ w2[(1 + RFC,EUR)(1
+ RFX,EUR) – 1]
= 0.659[(86,000,000/83,400,000)(4.1025/3.8729)-1]
+0.341[(51,000,000/55,000,000)(3.5142/3.0359)-1]=
0.659(0.0923) + 0.341(0.0734)= 0.0858
The calculations
show that the domestic currency value of the portfolio of foreign assets
increased because of changes (i.e., increases) in the domestic currency value
of UK and German equity investments. Note
w1 =
322,999,860/489,974,360 = 0.659 and w2 = 166,974,500/489,974,360 =
0.341
A is incorrect.
The domestic currency value of the portfolio increased, and the domestic currency
value of UK and German investments increased.
B is incorrect.
The domestic currency value of the portfolio increased because of increases in
the domestic currency value of UK and German investments. It is the foreign currency
value of German equity investments that declined.
w1 = 322,999,860/489,974,360 = 0.659 and w2 = 166,974,500/489,974,360 = 0.341
