Ad Ad The following question focuses on the exchange rate between Mexican pesos and U.S. dollars, defined as the number of Mexican pesos you must pay for one dollar. Suppose that incomes decrease in Mexico, causing Mexican consumers to purchase fewer U.S.-made goods and services. How does this affect the peso-dollar exchange rate? Drag the appropriate curve(s) on the following graph to illustrate how this change affects the market for dollars. Tool tip: Click and drag one or both of the curves. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move the curve and it snaps back to its original position, just try again and drag it a little farther.

The following graph depicts the foreign exchange market for euros. The blue line represents the demand schedule for euros, while the orange line represents the euro supply schedule. Suppose that real interest rates in France suddenly increase, while real interest rates in the United States remain stable. Use the graph to shift either the supply schedule, the demand schedule, or both, to depict the impact on the value of the euro. Then answer the question that follows. D QUANTITY OF EUROS As a result of this, the value of the euro is expected top VALUE OF EURO (U.S. dollars per euro)
U.S. DOLLARS PER POUND 1. Equilibrium rate of exchange Suppose that, initially, the foreign exchange market between the United States and Great Britain is in equilibrium. Suppose that preferences for goods made in Great Britain change in the United States, causing U.S. consumers to purchase fewer goods and services made in Great Britain. Illustrate how this change affects the market for pounds by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. Supply Demand --- Supply K POUNDS Demand This change in the market for pounds causes the U.S. dollar to change in the demand for foreign currency for the United States?

RUBLES PER KRONE RUBLES PER KRONE 3. Changes in the foreign exchange market The following questions focus on the exchange rate between the Russian ruble and the Danish krone. Assume the exchange rate is flexible. The exchange rate is defined as the number of rubles you must pay for one krone. Suppose a recession in Russia causes Russian incomes to decrease, while incomes in Denmark remain the same. Shift the appropriate curve or curves on the following graph to illustrate how this affects the market for Danish kroner if all other things remain equal. Note: Select and drap one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.

Using the concept of "carry trade," explain how a decrease in U.S. interest rates could affect the EUR/USD exchange rate. Given this change in exchange rate, how would firms and customers be affected? professors note Supply and demand for currencies can be tricky, not least due to the confusing idea that what we are buying or selling is money itself! Once you can wrap your mind around the idea that money is what is being obtained for other money, the next set of questions relates to what would or could make the price of one money change in terms of another. To this effect, I'd recommend a primer from Investopedia: Six Factors That Influence Exchange Rates. For your consideration in responding to this post, I suggest reading on how the Carry Trade has the capacity to magnify systemic risk.
According to the Economist ("Big Mac Currencies," The Economist, April 17th 1993), in 1993, the average price of a Big Mac in the U.S. was $2.28.
