The correct answer is 'no- quoting in the supplier's currency increases the risk for the buyer'. This questions comes up in a variety of formats in the exam. Remember; if the price is in your own currency (most examples in the exam are given in ) there is less risk than if the prices are quoted in a foreign currency. This is because exchange rates fluctuate; if the price is in you always know what you're paying, if it's in another currency the price can change daily depending on if the exchange rate compared to has gone up or down.

I definitely recall that futures are linked to commodities, but I wonder if there are exceptions for other types of purchases.

I’m a bit confused; I thought futures could also relate to high-value purchases, but I guess that’s more about risk management?

I think futures exchanges are mainly used for commodities, but I'm not entirely sure if they apply to other types of purchases too.

I'm a little confused by this question. Futures exchanges are used for all kinds of financial instruments, not just commodities. I'll have to review my notes to make sure I understand the specific use cases for futures exchanges.

Okay, I've got this. Futures exchanges are used for trading commodities like oil, gold, or agricultural products. That's the type of purchase you'd use a futures exchange for. I'm confident that option C is the correct answer.

Okay, let me think this through. The key here is that file hashes can help identify malware even if the file name changes. That's gotta be the main benefit they're looking for. I'll go with option B.
