And it also has its own price, that means we can use some currency to express the price of the other currency.Buying rate (buying price) is the rate used in the occasion when banks buy the exchange from the other banks or clients. While on the contrast, it is called selling rate (selling price)Direct quotation(giving quotation) means we use amounts of foreign currency to be the standard to calculate how much domestic currency we should pay. When we use this method, the buying rate will be the lower rate of the exchanging while the selling rate will be higher rate.Indirect quotation (receiving quotation) means in the contract of direct quotation, it uses amounts of domestic currency to be the standard to calculate how much foreign currency we will receive. When we use it, the buying rate will be the higher rate of exchanging while the selling rate will be the lower one.Floating exchange rateThere are many factors which influence the exchange rate. Generallyspeaking, the changing of economic strength and the economy policies of the countries are the primary cause of the development tendency of exchange rate.英本五班曹彦君1170210058。

国际贸易实务双语教程课后题答案

国际贸易实务双语教程课后题答案

KeyChapter1I. Answer my questions1. International trade is business whose activities involve the crossing of national borders. It includes not only international trade and foreign manufacturing but also encompasses the growing services industry in areas such as transportation, tourism, banking, advertising, construction, retailing, wholesaling, and mass communications. It includes all business transactions that involve two or more countries. Such business relationship may be private or governmental.2. Sales expansion, resource acquisition and diversification of sales and supplies.3. To gain profit.4. To seej out foreign markets and procurement.5. There are four major forms which are the following:Merchandise exports and Imports, Service Exports and Imports, Investment and Multinational Enterprise.6. It is the account which is a summary statement of the flow of all international economic and financial transactions between one nation (eg.the United States ) and the rest of the world over some period of time, usually one year.7. Merchandise Exporting and Importing.8. Yes. There are great differences between them.1) direct investment takes place when control follows the investment. It usually means high commitment of capital, personnel, and technology abroad. It aims at gaining of foreign resources and foreign markets. Direct investment may often get higher foreign sales than exporting. And sometimes it involves two or more parties.2) While portfolio investments are not under control. And they are used primarilyfor financial purposes. Treasures of companies, for example, routinely more funds from one country to another to get a higher yield on short term investments.9. MNE is the abbreviation of the multinational enterprise. Its synonyms are NNC (the multinational corporation) and TNC (transnational corporation).10. Examples are travel, transport, fee, royalties, dividends and interest.11. The choice of forms is influenced by the objective being pursued and the environments in which the company must operate.12. It is limited by the number of people interested in a firm’s products and services and by customers’ capacity to make purchase.13. This is because at an early stage of international involvement these operations usually take the least commitme nt and least risk of a firm’s resources.14. Royalties means the payment for use of assets from abroad, such as for trademarks patens, copyrights, or other expertise under contract known as licencing agreements.Royalties are also paid franchising.15. It is a way of doing business in which one party (the franchiser) the use of a trademark that is an essential asset for the franchisers’ business.II Match each one on the left with its correct meaning on the right1.

Trade is often the ‘engine’ of growt h. However oversimplified this metaphormay be, it does serve to underline the importance of foreign trade in the process of growth. A healthy expansion of exports may not always be sufficient condition for rapid and sustained growth, but a strong positive association between the two is clearly undeniable. Trade expansion contributes to economic growth in many ways. Among them are the benefits of specialization; the favorable effects of international competition on domestic economic efficiency; the increased capacity to pay for the imports required in development and more generally the stimulus to investment.2. International trade is the exchange of goods and services produced in one country for goods and services produced in another country. In addition to visible trade, which involves the import and export of goods and merchandise, there is also invisible trade, which involves the exchange of services between nations. Nations such as Greece and Norway have large maritime fleets and provide transportation service. This is a kind of invisible trade. Invisible trade can be as important to some nations as the export of raw materials or commodities is to others. In both cases, the nations earn the money to buy necessities.3. There exist different ways of conducting international business. Exclusive sale means the seller gives the overseas client the exclusive right of selling a particular product in a designated area within a specified period of time. In this kind of business transaction, the product is bought by the exclusive seller and therefore he should sell the product by himself, assuming sole responsibilities for his profit and loss. Exclusive sale is different from agency where only commission is involved. And difference exists between general contract and exclusive sales because the exclusive seller enjoys exclusive right in a particular area.4. There is no country in the world that can produce all the products it needs.Thus countries join in international division of labor for effective production and reproduction. Sometimes a country can buy goods and services from abroad on a barter basis. Barter means doing business by exchanging goods of one sort for goods of another sort without using money. Barter trade itself is not enough to meat a country’s imp ort needs. But as a form of international trade, it is still attractive in developing countries where foreign exchange is in short supply and inflow of foreign funds is far from sufficient to meet their obligations in external trade.I. Answer the following questions(Omited)II. Filling the blanks with the suitable words in the text:1.meeting/satisfying;2.agent, foreign/overseas;mission;4.own;5.setting;6.patent;7.profits;8.outlets;9.joint, venture; 10.subsidiaryIII.Translate the followings into English1). Economic activity began with the cavemen, who was economicallyself-sufficient. He did his own hunting, found his own shelter, and provided for his own needs. As primitive populations grew and developed, the principle of division of labor evolved. One person was more able to perform some activity than another, and therefore each person concentrated on what he did best. While one hunted, another fished. The hunter then traded his surplus to the fisherman, and each benefited from the variety of diet.In today’s complex economic world, neither individuals nor nations areself-sufficient nations are self-sufficient. Nations have utilized different economic resources; people have developed different skills. This is the foundation of international trade and economic activities.Foreign trade, the exchange of goods between nations, takes place for many reasons. The first, as mentioned above, is that no nation has all of the commodities than it needs. Raw materials are scattered around the world. Large deposits of copper are mined in Peru and Zaire, diamonds are mined in South Africa, and petroleum is recovered in Middle East. Countries that do not have these resources within their own boundaries must buy from countries that export them.Foreign trade also occurs because a country often does not have enough of a particular item to meet its needs. Although the United States is a major producer of sugar, it consumes more than it can produce internally and thus must import sugar. Third, one nation can sell some items at a lower cost than other countries. Japanhas been able to export large quantities of radios and television sets because it can produce them more efficiently than other countries. It is cheaper for the United States to buy these from Japan than to produce them domestically.Finally, foreign trade takes place because of innovation or style. Even though the United States produces more automobiles than any other country, it still imports large quantities of autos from Germany, Japan and Sweden, primarily because there is a market for them in the United States.2). The different kinds of trade nations engaged in are varied and complex, a mixture of visible and invisible trade. Most nations are more dependent on exports than on any other activity. The earnings from exports pay for the imports that they need and want. A nation’s balance of payment is a record of these complex transactions. By reflecting all of these transactions in monetary terms , a nation is able to combine the income it receives, for example, from exports, tourists expenditures, and immigrant remittances. This combined incomes is then spent on such items as manufactured goods from other countries, travel for its citizens to other countries, and the hiring of construction engineers.I.

Answer the following questions in English:1 A contract is an agreement which sets forth bind obligations of the relevant parties. And any part that fails to fulfill his contractual obligations may be sued and forced to make compensation.2 There are two parties of business contract negotiations: oral and written. The former refers to direct discussions abroad; written negotiations often begin with enquiries made by the buyers.3 A written contract is generally prepared and signed as the proof of the agreement and as the basis for its execution. A sales or purchase confirmation is less detailed than a contract, covering only the essential terms of the transaction. It is usually used for smaller deals or between familiar trade partners.4 The setting up of a contract is similar to that of a trade agreement or any othertype of formal agreements. It generally contains: 1) the title. The type of the contract is indicated in the title; 2) the contract proper. It is the main part of a contract; 3) the signature of the contracting parties indicating their status as the seller or the buyer; 4) the stipulations on the back of the contract and are equally binding upon the contracting parties.5 It generally contains the time of shipment, the mode of payment described in addition to an exact description of the goods including the quantity, quality, specifications, packing methods, insurance, commodity inspection, claims, arbitration and force majeure, etc.III.

Exchange Rate
The exchange rate between two currencies specifies how much one currency is worth in terms of the other. An exchange rate is also known as a foreign-exchange rate, forex rate or FX rate. For example an exchange rate of 120 Japanese yen (JPY, ¥) to the United States dollar (USD, $) means that JPY 120 is worth the same as USD 1

International Trade TheoriesChapter 1 Benefits of International TradeIn this chapter, we first explain the meaning of international trade, and then turn our attention to benefits from international trade.Definition of International TradeInternational trade, sometimes also called international business or simply foreign trade, occurs when a firm exports goods or services to consumers in another country. Nowadays when talking about international trade we do not just mean selling and buying goods on an international scale but also cross-border trade in services and carrying out of investment activities abroad.The Benefits or Gains from International TradeWhy do nations trade with each other? The answer is simple: Because we can receive benefits or make gains from it.Now let’s have a look at the chief benefits from international trade.(1) Helping to raise the living standards of the peopleTake the United States. A great deal of its high standard of living depends on international trade. Without international trade the United States cannot become a kingdom of automobiles because most of its oil is imported from abroad. Without international trade the United States can not have enough tin, tungsten and chromium for certain industrial process because the United States has no deposits of them. Remember no country is able to produce everything it needs. That is an important reason for trade.(2) Helping to upgrade a country’s modernizationForeign trade can help a nation make money in the form of foreign exchange which can be used to finance its purchases of high technology needed for upgrading its modernization and speeding up its industrialization process.(3) Helping to solve a country’s shortage of capitalA lot of world’s enterprises, esp. those of the developing nations, are in desperate need of capital, for their expansion, for employing workers, for buying raw materials, for purchasing advanced equipment and carrying out the R & D programes. Such a problem can be solved by attracting foreign investment through forming joint ventures.(4) Helping to solve unemployment problemsFor both developed nations and developing nations export trade can provide more employment opportunities. Without foreign trade some people will lose their jobs.(5) Helping to promote mutual understanding and friendship between tradingThrough foreign trade a country can know more about a country’s economic situation, legal system, culture and customs. Businessmen or foreign trade workers of different countries become friends by trading with one another.(6) Helping to boost a country’s competitiveness in the world marketIf a country’s business wants to gain market access to a foreign country, it must be able to compete with its rivals with high quality goods, attractive designing, and better after-sales service.(7) Helping a country to accelerate its overall economic growthHere is a case in point. In 1970 living standards in Ghana (well-known for its cocoa) and South Korea were roughly comparable. Ghana’s GNP per capita was $250, and South Korea’s was$260. By 1995, the situation had dramatically changed. South Korea had a GNP per capita of $ 9,700 while Ghana’s only $390, reflecting a vastly different economic growth rate. Between 1968 and 1995, the average annual growth rate in Ghana’s GNP was under 1.4%. In contrast, South Korea achieved a growth rate of about 9% annually in the same period of time. Why the sharp difference? Of course there is no easy answer because many factors affect a country’s growth. But one thing is certain, that is, The South Korean government implemented policies that encouraged companies to engage in international trade, while the actions of the Ghanaian government discouraged domestic producers from becoming involved in international trade. That is why some economists say foreign trade can be compared to the engine of economic growth.New Words1. cross-border 跨国境的2. tin 锡3. tungsten 铬4. chromium 钨5. deposit(s) 贮藏量6. to finance 为……提供资金7. to upgrade 使升级,提升8. vastly 巨大地9. industrialization 工业化10. firm 公司,企业11. modernization 现代化12. automobiles (美)汽车(常用auto)13. to boost 增加14. competitiveness 竞争力15. to accelerate 加快16. to implement 执行(政策等)Useful Phrases and Idiomatic Expressions1. on an international scale 在国际范围内2. a case in point 恰当的例子,例证3. to engage in 从事与4. to discourage sb. from doing sth. 不鼓励某人做某事,劝阻某人不做某事5. to be compared to 将……比作6. in the form of 以……形式,用……方式7. in contrast 相形之下8. to turn one’s attention to 将某人注意力转向ExercisesI.

科书上对汇率的解说是含混不清的,一般都 说汇率是两种货币购买力的比。然而,以人民
币和美元购买力来讲,二者的比取决于买什么东西。 如果买旅游鞋,大概是四元人民币合一美元,但是 如果买汽车,大概是十五元人民币合一美元,这不 叫人糊涂吗?其实,正因为两种货币购买力之比是 变化的,它取决于买什么商品,这才有外贸。

•Basic rate vs Cross rate •Based on the key currency and calculate other rates. It is a triangle relationship. •香港把美元作为关键货币计算出基本汇率为1 美元=7.86港元,如果纽约市场上1英镑=1.63美 元,那么,港币对英镑的汇率就可以套算出来 •1英镑=7.86×1.63=12.81港元
