Answer:

This is an example of using exchange rate forecasting to assist with capital budgeting decisions, with the goal of improving the value of the MNC via influencing the dollar value of foreign cash flows.

Capital budgeting decisions have to do with decisions a company makes on investments that it would like to go into. Depositing money into a Eurozone bank account is that investment so this is a capital budgeting decision.

The goal of this investment is to improve the value of the company by gaining from an appreciation of the Euro so that a higher dollar amount can be acquired for the Euros held.
