Which currency will the custom formula use for its value if the opportunity and account records have different currencies?

Sales reps at Cloud Kicks (CK) need to see the Opportunity amount with the Account’s discount field. CK sales reps are located in different regions and use different currencies. A consultant creates a custom formula field on the Opportunity.

Which currency will the custom formula use for its value if the opportunity and account records have different currencies?
A . Opportunity currency
B . User currency
C . Corporate currency

Answer: A

Explanation:

In Salesforce, when a custom formula field is created on an Opportunity, the formula uses the Opportunity’s currency for calculations. This is particularly important in organizations using multiple currencies, as it ensures that calculations remain consistent with the record on which the formula is defined. Therefore, the formula field will display the value in the Opportunity’s currency, regardless of the Account’s currency.
