Ah, that way. Although it would still be pretty bad method for indicating whether or not their guess is on or off-track, as the production cost will be much higher than in the beginning of the fiscal year than at the end of it.

This article mrstickball posted came out on December 29th, when the currency crash was already set in stone.

They would at least carry some of the blame for not indicating which assumptions they used (including currency levels). Even if we ignore whether they're to blame or not, the point is that their guess is rendered useless to us without knowing these assumptions.

 

Agreed
