Toyota manufactures in Japan most of the vehicles it sells in the United Kingdom. The base platform for the Toyota Tundra truck line is ¥1,650,000. The spot rate of the Japanese yen against the British pound has recently moved from ¥197/£ to ¥190/£. How does this change the price of the Tundra to Toyota's British subsidiary in British pounds?

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the change in price is shown below:

Original import price

= 1,650,000 ÷ 197

= 8375.63

The new import price is

=  1,650,000 ÷ 190

= 8,684.21

Now the percentage change in price is

= (8,684.21 - 8375.63) ÷ 8375.63

= 3.68%

This would be equal to the percentage change in the Japanese yen as the price of the truck remains unchanged
