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. EXCHANGE RATE (Pesos per dollar) Supply Demand FOREIGN EXCHANGE IMIlions of dollars) A decrease in incomes that causes Mexican consumers to buy fewer U.S.-made goods and services will cause the Mexican peso to relative to the dollar, appreciate depreciate

A6 “Commodity-rich Australia is one of the very few countries to receive an economic growth upgrade by the International Monetary Fund, after the global outlook was slashed due to war in Ukraine and soaring inflation.” (Financial Review, 11 April 2022). “Australia’s economy has received a boost from the surge in the price of commodities such as gas, iron ore, coal and wheat”, said IMF division chief for Australia, Harald Finger. a. Assume that Australia’s economy is in its medium-run equilibrium (i.e. Y_t = Y_n and u_t = u_n) where Y_t represents the level of output in year t; u_t is the unemployment rate in year t; u_n is the natural rate of unemployment. Use the multiplier model diagram to illustrate the impact on Australia’s GDP from an increase in net export due to increase in commodity prices. Show the output gap in your graph.
