 1. Kurs jual (rupiah --> uang asing) merupakan kurs yang dipakai apabila bank/money changer
ingin menjual uang asing (valuta asing/valas) kepada kita atau jika ingin menukarkan rupiah
dengan uang asing. rumus kurs jual = nilai rupiah : nilai mata uang asing.
2. Kurs beli (rupiah <-- uang asing) merupakan kurs yang dipakai apabila bank/money changer
ingin membeli uang asing dari kita atau jika kita ingin menukarkan uang asing dengan rupiah.
rumus kurs beli = mata uang asing x rupiah
Veronika berangkat dari Jakarta tanggal 25 Desember 2014 untuk berlibur ke Amerika Serikat selama 2 minggu.
Tiga hari sebelum berangkat, ia menukarkan uangnya sebesar Rp 24.000.000,00 ke mata uang dollar Amerika
Serikat. Selama berlibur, ia menghabiskan uang sebesar US $ 1.800. Setelah tiba di Jakarta ia langsung
menukarkan kembali seluruh uangnya ke dalam mata uang rupiah. Berapa rupiah yang diterima Veronika?

A. Rp 1.517.193,70
B. Rp 1.525.866,82
C. Rp 1.532.371,66
D. Rp 1.769.569,90
Kurs jual = jika mata uang rupiah ditukar menjadi mata uang asing.
Kurs beli = jika mata uang asing ditukar menjadi mata uang rupiah.
Jadi, menukar Rp 24.000.000,00 ke dollar gunakan kurs jual (3 hari sebelum
berangkat, jadi tanggal 22 desember dg kurs jual 12.497,00) sehingga yang
diperoleh Veronika = 24.000.000 / 12.497,00 = $ 1.920,461

Veronika menghabiskan uang $ 1.800 sehingga sisa uangnya $ 1.920,461 - $

1.800 = $120,4609

Uang $ 120,4609 ditukar kembali ke dalam rupiah (yang berlaku kurs beli pada
tgl 8 januari karena berlibur 2 minggu)

Jadi uang yang dimiliki Veronika = 120,4609 x 12.667,00 = Rp 1.525.866,82
