1 Nominal exchange rate is the actual exchange rate that prevails for one currency in terms of another currency. Real exchange rate shows value of currencies after taking into account price level of each country that is also called inflation.

Answer is C exchange rate adjusted for inflation.

MACRS 5 years depreciation rate for year 1 = 20%
MACRS 5 years depreciation rate for year 2 = 32%
MACRS 5 years depreciation rate for year 3 = 19.2%

Book value = $100,000 x (1-0.20-0.32-0.192)
= $100,000 x 0.288
= $28,800

Recapture depreciation = $40,000 - $28,800 = $11,200

Capital gain = $0

Tax liability = $11,200 x 40%
= $4,480
