16、spend the one-week Spring Festival holiday shopping in TianjinPassage TwoWhat determines the rate of exchange between currencies will be examined later in this booklet, but first it is useful to consider the mechanics of international transactions. To enable a UK importer to pay his American supplie

17、r, for example, the facilities of two or more banks are used, firstly in handling the often complex documentation and secondly, through the foreign exchange market, in obtaining the currency required. At one time payments to and from other countries were made by bills of exchange ; hence in part the

18、 term ”exchange rate”, which was maintained even though other methods of payment have largely superseded the bill of exchange. The British importer will probably need to pay his American supplier in dollars and his British bank can offer him several alternative methods of settlement. It can provide

19、him with a bankers draft drawn in dollars. The bank is able to do this because it will have an account with another bank (called a correspondent bank) in an American city and it simply issues a dollar cheque or draft drawn on that account. The British importer can then send this draft by airmail to

20、the supplier.Since there is a danger that the draft may be lost or fall into the wrong hands, the safer and more normal method would be for the British bank to arrange for payment by mail transfer. Instructions are sent by airmail to the correspondent bank in the British banks dollar account. This m

21、ail transfer system is very flexible since the instructions for payment can be varied or elaborated to suit practically every kind of requirement.6. How many methods of settlement are mentioned in this passage when the British importer needs dollar to pay his American supplier? B A. Two B. Three C.

22、One D. Several7. Why is the British bank able to offer its customer a bankers draft drawn in dollar? C A. Its US correspondent bank prefers to make the payment.B. It will send dollar in cash by airmailC. It has a dollar account with another bank in an American city where the beneficiary lives.D. Its

23、 customer has a dollar account with it.8. What will the correspondent bank do in the settlement according to this passage? A A. It will make payment in dollars against the bankers draft. B. It will send the draft to the bank in Britain.C. It will issue a documentary credit. D. It will have an agreem

24、ent with the bank mentioned.9. What is the safer and more normal method for the importers bank to effect the settlement? B A. To issue a bankers draft. B. To arrange for payment by mail transfer.C. To make the payment to its correspondent bank.D. To ask the importer to pay the money on his dollar ac

Many companies are suppliers to borrowers in group-financed projects, and these borrowers spend billions of dollar

29、s each year buying goods and services from businesses.3.As well as claims there are also derivative instruments-contracts relating to the prices of securities, interest rates or foreign exchange rates at some date in the future.4. Another reason foreigners accepted so many US dollars was that these

30、dollars provided liquidity to support world trade and investment, which grew rapidly in the post-world war .5. Most important among these changes was that the supply and composition of international liquidity became endogenously determined, that is, the international monetary system was based on a f

The bank will want to use a discount rate that is higher than the interest rate on the note in order to increase its earnings. GE may be wil

52、ling to accept this higher rate in order to get cash quickly. The discounted value, called the proceeds, is the amount that GE receives from the bank. The proceeds are computed as follows:General Electrics entry to record discounting the note is:Dec.9, 1994 cash.$15 170Note receivableDorman Builders
