Perth International Co., an Australian multinational company, forecasts 61 million Australian dollars (A$) earnings next year (i.e., year-one). It expects 55 million Chinese yuan (CNY), 47 million Indian rupees (INR) and 32 million Malaysian ringgit (MYR) proceeds of its three subsidiaries in year-one. It also forecasts the year-one exchange rates A$0.2157/CNY, A$0.0446/INR and A$0.5333/MYR.

• The total Australian dollar (A$) cash flow for year-one is equal to A$92,025,300.
• Perth International anticipates a 4.16 per cent increase in the year-one income of its subsidiaries in year-two. It has information that the current 5.58 per cent, 7.77 per cent, 13.55 per cent and 10.61 per cent nominal interest rate in Australia, China, India and Malaysia, respectively, will remain the same in the next three years. Due to foreign currency higher nominal interest rate, subsidiaries will invest 28 per cent, 50 per cent and 44 per cent of their year-two earnings in China, India and Malaysia, respectively, for next year. Subsidiaries will remit their remaining incomes (i.e., after investment) to the Australian parent. Perth International believes in the International Fisher Effects with considering a 2.57 per cent real interest in Australia, China, India and Malaysia to calculate the expected foreign currency value against the Australian dollar for year-two based on the year-one exchange rates A$/CNY, A$/INR, and A$/MYR.
