Suppose that the annualized inflation in the US is 3% while annual inflation in Europe is 1%. If the current exchange rate is $1.40 per Euro that would you expect the exchange rate to be in one year? If the exchange rate one year from now turns out to be $1.50 per Euro, what has happened to the real exchange rate?
Suppose the current exchange rate for the Polish zloty is Z3.37. The expected exchange rate in 5 years. The expected exchange rate in 5 years is Z3.63. What is the difference in the annual inflation rates for the United States and Poland over this period? Assume that the anticipated rate is constant for both countries.
Suppose that the Eurozone is the domestic country and the United States is the foreign country. The spot exchange rate quote is S=e:$ = $1.25. Suppose further that the expected annual U.S. inflation rate is 8.91 percent and the expected Eurozone annual inflation rate is 12.87 percent. Calculate the expected spot rate and the approximate expected spot rate one year away
A. Suppose the dollar interest rate and the euro interest rate are the same and equal 2 percent per year. Suppose the expected future $/€ exchange rate is $1.20 per 1 €. Suppose now Euro interest rate decreases to 1 percent per year. Determine how the new equilibrium $/€ exchange rate will change if the US interest rate remains constant. B. Indicate how the change in the Euro interest rate will affect the equilibrium $/€ exchange rate and the expected return on euro assets. Explain the changes on the graph.
Assume that the Mexican peso currently trades at 11 pesos to the U.S. dollar. During the year U.S. inflation is expected to average 4%, while Mexican inflation is expected to average 5%. What is the current value of one peso in terms of U.S. dollars? Given the relative inflation rates, what will the exchange rates be 1 year from now? Which currency is expected to appreciate and which currency is expected to depreciate over the next year? The current value of one Mexican peso in terms of U.S. dollars, USS, is US$/MP. (Round to six decimal places.) Given the relative inflation rates, the exchange rate of one U.S. dollar in terms of Mexican pesos, MP, one year from now will be MP/US$. (Round to six decimal places.)

a) The current spot rate between the euro and dollar is €1.0963/$. The annual inflation rate in the U.S is expected to be 3.03 percent and the annual inflation rate in euroland is expected to be 2.47 percent. Assuming relative purchasing power parity holds, what will the exchange rate be in two years? b) The spot rate between the U.K. and the U.S. is £.7579/$, while the one-year forward rate is £.7533/$. The risk-free rate in the U.K. is 4.45 percent and risk-free rate in the United States is 2.67 percent. How much in profit can you earn on $7,500 utilizing covered interest arbitrage?
