U.S. dollar to New Zealand dollar
Exchange rate is the increase of domestic interest rates
Spain
US dollar to Euro
European Central Bank
Open markets
Continuous research on inflation

Part 3- Overseas Companies
In high inflationary economies, functional currency designation is stated which is the U.S. dollar for U.S. companies.
When acknowledging investments across borders, one of the main important tasks to understand is the different and variety of accounting standards other countries
Converting foreign currency into U.S. dollar can be done in 3 different exchange rates; current rate, historical rate, and average rate.
“1. Which exchange rate should be used to translate foreign currency balances to domestic currency? 2. How should translation gains and losses be accounted for? Should they be included in income?” (Christensen, Cottrell, & Budd, 2016, pg. 623)

Conclusion
Greene company wants to diversify and has two different scenarios, subsidiaries (Lumber and Insurance companies) and overseas companies (Spain and New Zealand). Whether overseas or within the U.S., Greene can choose either of the options. Both scenarios require extra work when preparing consolidated financial statements and under the accounting principles the Greene company is legally available to progress with any of the choices presented.
