As we discussed in class, a contract
is a legally binding and enforceable
promise or set of promises between 2 or
more competent parties. Contracts
are entered every day in business and
are of significant import to most
businesses
As a legally binding instrument, the contract and its terms should be
carefully evaluated and properly doc
umented by the parties. Prior to
negotiating and formalizing a contract,
most prudent business managers and
owners identify key risks and benefits
and seek to negotiate and address
material terms in their agreements.
With this assignment, you are intere
sted in purchasing a juice shop in
northeast Fresno. You have found the
perfect existing business and are
preparing to meet and negotiate a cont
ract with the owner. The business is
currently owned by a small
corporation. For tax reasons, you believe that it
is best to buy the assets of the busine
ss rather than the corporation (stock).
You have scheduled a meeting w
ith the owner of the business.
Before meeting with the owner, you
will be meeting with your business
attorney and intend to prepare a memorandum offering input and
instructions on important terms and
deal points for the transaction.
In your BA 18 class, you learned the basi
cs of contracts and have reviewed a
sample contract in a different setting
(see Course Document Sample Real
Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement).
The Sample Contract includes an
outline with a listing of some of the h
eadings for substantive terms important
in a real estate transaction.
At the end of the Agreement, you have
also had an opportunity to review
some sample General Provisions.
As you understand, these general
provisions are examples of certain sta
ndard protective provisions included in
many contracts, i.e. jurisdiction, ve
nue and attorneys fee clauses.
Utilizing this sample agreement a
nd your business acumen, you will be
preparing a memorandum outlining key/
material terms for this asset
purchase agreement (i.e. price) and offe
ring some input as to why each of
these terms is critical and a material pa
rt of the negotiations and contract.
Please also review and identify some
of the General Term
s that you believe
that your attorney should incorporate in
to the Agreement. Again, explain
why each of these terms is importan
t to you in this transaction.
As we discussed with negotiations,
preparation and analysis is very
important.
Your memorandum should be 3 pages or
less. You will be evaluated on the
content and quality of your writing.
Please be creative and use your critical
thinking skills to identify issues and key el
ements in this transaction.
2) Identify the Purchasing power parity (PPP) in the above generalized monetary model given above and briefly tell us what it means.
3)The graph below illustrates the Euro Zone home money market and the foreign exchange market (Forex) along with Euro interest rate, r¬, money supply, money demand, real balances (MEU/PEU), Expected Euro returns in the Forex market, the foreign return curve, and the Euro/Yen exchange rate, E¬/¥.
a) If money demand in the home (Euro Zone) market increases, what happens to
Euro interest rate; b) expected Euro returns from the Forex; and c) exchange rate, E¬/¥? Explain, or mark the graph and explain.
b) Is the graph above portraying the ASSET APPROACH to exchange rate changes or is the general monetary model approach to exchange rate movement? Briefly explain.
4) Let’s look at the general monetary model of exchange rates for Swiss Franc (SFr) relative to Australian dollar (A$) again.
ESFr/A$ = PSFr/PA$ = [{MSFr/LSFr(rSFr)YSFr} / {MA$/LA$(rA$)YA$}]
For, ESFr/A$ = exchange rate; PSFr/PA$ = relative prices, MSFr = money supply;
LSFr (rSFr)YSFr = real money demand with LSFr(rSFr) = liquidity as a function of interest rate, rSFr, and YSFr = real income. Similarly MA$ = money supply, with LA$(rA$)YA$ = real money demand and with LA$(rA$) being liquidity as a function of interest rate and YA$ = real income.
But this time suppose that the Australian money supply, MA$, increases and the Australian real money demand, LA$(rA$)YA$}, decreases very slightly because the money supply change influences a slight increase in interest rate, rA$, as we would expect to happen. What is the effect on the price ratio, PSFr/PA$, and the exchange rate, ESFr/A$ with these two changes? Explain.
5) The graph below is similar to the graph found above in Problem 3. The graph illustrates the Euro Zone home money market and the foreign exchange market (Forex) along with Euro interest rate, r¬, money supply, money demand, real balances (MEU/PEU), Expected Euro returns in the Forex market, the foreign return curve, and the Euro/Yen exchange rate, E¬/¥.
But this time there is an increase in the Foreign money supply. What happens in this case to a) Euro interest rate; b) expected Euro returns from the Forex; and c) exchange rate, E¬/¥? Explain, or mark the graph and explain.
{ It may be good to know that Foreign return curve is: r¬ = r¥ + ((E’¬¥ E¬¥ ) / E¬¥ = r¥ + (F¬¥ S¬¥ ) / S¬¥) is telling us that the return in euro = the return in yen + the Forward euro to yen rate minus the spot euro to yen rate and divided by the spot euro to yen rate hence the treatment of returns as indicating the return on assets the concept of money is an asset. So we characterize the asset treatment of exchange rates. The home interest rate value is related to the foreign interest rate + the Forward rate of exchange minus the Spot rate of exchange and all divided by the Spot rate of exchange}
