Foreign Exchange Gain or Loss

This video shows how to calculate the gain or loss on a foreign currency transaction. A foreign currency gain or loss could occur on an export sale or an import purchase. For example, if a U.S. firm sold inventory to a Japanese firm, and the Japanese firm promised to pay in Japanese yen at some point after the sale, the U.S. firm could recognize a gain or a loss if the exchange rate for converting Japanese yen to U.S. dollars changes between the date the inventory is sold and the date the money is collected.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
