If Boeing's dollar aircraft prices increase 25% and the yen/dollar exchange rate declines 15%, Japan Air Lines is effectively facing a price increase of 40, 2, or 10 % for the purchase of a Boeing 747. Boeing's margin would likely rise or fall if the yen depreciated and competitor prices were unchanged.
