    B. Gain $8,000

    Explanation:

    The calculation of exchange translation is shown below:-

    Old exchange rate = Net exposed assets * Value of Euro

    = 200,000 * $1.22

    = $244,000

    New value in euro = Net exposed assets * Increased exchange rate

    = 200,000 * $1.26

    = $252,000

    Translation Profit = New value in euro - Old exchange rate

    = $252,000 - $244,000

    = $8,000
