Dear Sir, In Appendix 1 of the answer, Remittance flows in Calculation I could not grasp it. Could you plz help me with little explanation? After such a long time, I entered in the site for P4 help and I must admit that this particular paper is more resourceful than any time before. Thanks a lot to the people working behind this from one of the students of developing world where we don’t get any quality tuition provider.

I am not sure which part of the answer you are not clear about. You calculate the cash flows in YR in the normal way, and then convert to $'s using the forecast exchange rates given in the question.

The question says that currently they earn a contribution of $40 on a price of $200. So the cost to Imoni is $160. It also says that they can increase the transfer price to $280, so the contribution will be 280 - 160 = $120.
