You get an offer from someone who owns a record store in Germany who wants to buy your CDs at $10 each and sell them for €30. He says his profit from each sale would be €12 and he will split it with you. Assuming the exchange rate between the dollar and the euro is $1 = €2:
a. How much profit would you get from the sale of each CD in the German store?
b. How much is that profit in dollars?
c. Is this a good business opportunity for you? Why or why not?
