Answer:

  • $88,000 gain in dollars
  • €0 gain (loss) in Euros

Explanation:

Last year, the value of the inventory in dollars was;

= 440,000 * 1.12

= $‭492,800‬

This year with the new exchange rate this value has gone to;

= 440,000 * 1.32

= $580,800‬

The Gain (loss) in dollars is;

= Current value - Last year value

= 580,800‬ - 492,800

= $88,000

The value of the Euro both last year and this year is still €440,000 so the change is gain is €0.
