You can sell the motherboards for $160 each. (Enter your answer as directed, but do not round intermediate calculations.)
Calculate your profit if the exchange rate stays the same over the next 90 days.(Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
Calculate your profit if the exchange rate rises by 10 percent over the next 90 days.(Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
Calculate your profit if the exchange rate falls by 10 percent over the next 90 days.(Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
