She believes the correct method is use the end - year spot rate in 2012 of Ps. 50/$ and assume it will change in relation to purchasing power (she is assuming U.S inflation to be 5% per annum) She alsobelieves that Harmosa should use a risk -adjusted discount rate in Argentina which reflects Argentine capital costs (20%) is her estimate) and a risk-adjusted discount rate for the parent viewpoint capital budget, (18%) on the assumption that international projects in a risky currency environment should require a higher expected return than other lower -risk projects. How do these assumptions and changes after Hermosa's perspective on the proposed investment? Please assist me with this assignment.
