Answer 1

Current rate method

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation is defined as the conversion of financial statement of a foreign subsidiary from the foreign currency to local currency.

This is done to reduce the effect of foreign exchange risk.

Current rate method uses the current exchange rate in translation.

Translation is used when the local currency is the functional currency of the company.
