1. Since you are a Finance intern at MKD and have studied the International Finance course, the FD requires you to do the following calculationsand analyse this project.1.You have studied different models (PPP, IRP, IFE, Macro model, Composite model) to predict the exchange rate. You mustselect one of these models and forecast the necessaryexchange rates to convert the cash flows from the PH project into the parent company currency. (Hint: Mondelez International prepares financial statements in USD). You are required to research and find the required data for this calculation. You need to explain your assumptionsand data and mention the data sourcesused.

2.Determine the net present value (NPV) of this project from the parent companys perspective and assumethe Company will remain unhedged.Should MKD proceed with this project?You should clearly state your assumptionsand justifyyour assumptions with valid research-basedevidence and additional data and information.

Initially, the plan is to produce products in Vietnam, set up one representative office in PH, and find a few distributors in PH to set up the product-introduction-store and distribute the products in PH. The Sales Director and the Finance Director discussed the following financial elements together: The Company has sufficient capacity to accommodate the PH business expansion within the first 12 months. However, it still needs to allocate the depreciation cost to the PH business in the first year. Furthermore, the Company requires an extra investment of 4.7 million USD for a new production line in year 2. The Company's general practice is to depreciate any investment over 10 years using the straight-line depreciation method. The Company will need an initial working capital of 4 million USD to run the business in PH to cover the expenses to rent the office, hire employees, and advertise the product in PH. KD is considering borrowing the funds required for the working capital investment and the extra investment in year 2. As an intern of the Company, FD has requested you to analyse different alternatives and suggest the best market to borrow. Should the Company borrow from the VN market or the PH market? 2 The project start date is April 01, 2022. Assuming the project will be terminated at the end of Year 5, when the business in PH will be sold to the PH company, MKD requires calculating the resale value of the business after 5 years. The FD has requested you to provide a calculation for this as well. You should mention your assumptions and justify your calculations. Price and demand information is given in Exhibit 1. The MKD also considers how to raise prices based on the inflation in PH. In addition, the SD also expects to achieve growth in demand for the products in the PH market. As the finance intern, you should research and propose an appropriate inflation rate and growth rate for MKD that can be achieved in the PH market during the period of the project. You should justify all your calculations and mention your assumptions. All costs (fixed and variable) are paid in PHP (Philippine Peso), and the interest cost will be determined depending on which country they would borrow from. All cash flows received by the subsidiary will be sent to the parent company (MKD in Vietnam) at the end of each year. The subsidiary will use its working capital to support ongoing operations. Assume no Withholding Tax (WHT). Assume MKD has to pay the regular corporate income tax as per the current regulation in PH, and there is no tax to pay in Vietnam for the earnings received from PH.
