[Example] An enterprise borrows HK$ 500,000 from a bank, and the borrowed foreign currency is temporarily stored in the bank. The market exchange rate at the time of borrowing is 1 HKD, which is equivalent to 1. 10 RMB. Enterprises can do the following:

Debit: Bank deposit-HK$ 500,000 and RMB 550,000.
