EXCHANGE RATE EFFECT
  Definition
  
Gains or losses which result from exchange of foreign currency to reporting currency.

  Comment
  
It is necessary to include this number when a company has operations in countries outside the home country. Swings in exchange rates can have dramatic effects on a company's balance sheet. For this reason companies employ hedging strategies to reduce the risk of exposure to exchange rate fluctuations.
