Case Analysis Using the spot exchange rate and interest rates shown, we calculated the present value of the USD 144,927,000 receivable that VSC will obtain on November 17th, 2011: Forward Currency contract: Foreign Currency Futures contract: Foreign Currency Options (Call option at CME for EUR): Tunnel Forwards: Foreign Currency Loan (Money Market Hedge): Presale of Foreign Contract: The following table summarizes the EUR present values of all options, and includes the received 10% down payment to determine the % markup over the original EUR price of the contract: It is clear that all options allow VSC to receive an overall present value of the A/R that is higher than the original project bid and with a % markup that is above the estimated 12%.

Rob Johnson, IMF executive director said, "Telling the whole story about unionization is important and if more companies put as much effort into working with unions in a proactive way rather than spending millions on preventing unionization the results would be evident." (Fortune, 2012, p. 1). As part of the Automaker's union, Ford Motors family has grown extensively in the last several decades. The employees at Ford, as unionized workers with the UAW, successfully have developed Ford into one of the largest manufacturers in the United States. Fords benefits from unionization because the union contracts can be negotiated and any work issues can be resolved, such as workplace safety, wages, and benefits.
