Paul · Answer 1

C) Import purchase - Depreciates - Gain

Explanation:

When a country A imports products from country B, it crates a foreign currency payable account. If country B's currency depreciates, then the amount of the foreign currency payable account decreases, resulting in a gain from foreign exchange operations.
