As you review the annual report, draft answers to the following questions:
What are the functional currencies of Ford's subsidiaries?
How much and where did Ford report the gain or loss on remeasurement of its subsidiaries' financial statements?
From what currencies were the subsidiaries' financial statements remeasured into dollars?
In examining the comparative financial statements, do these gains and losses appear to change dramatically over time? Does this appear to affect the volatility (and apparent riskiness) of Ford's cash flow stream?
