The net is an inflow equivalent to $1,120,000

Explanation:

Net inflow or outflow is the result from the addition of the results from the subsidiaries in Germany and Greece

Net Inflow / (Outflow) = (-10,500,000) + (11,500,000)

where the outflow is negative and inflow is positive

Net Inflow / (Outflow) = €1,000,000

This is a net positive position (Net inflow)

Considering the exchange rate given,

€1 = $1.12

Therefore,

€1,000,000 would be equivalent to

= 1,000,000 * 1.12

= $1,120,000 (net inflow)
