In the international market for lumber, suppose Canadian lumber sells for $100 per tonne while Chinese lumber sells for 500 Chinese yuan per tonne. a) What is Purchasing Power Parity? If the current exchange rate is 4 yuan per Canadian dollar, does Purchasing Power Parity hold? b) If the current exchange rate is 4 yuan per dollar, what is the value of the real exchange rate between Canada and China? To earn a profit by exploiting the arbitrage opportunity, in which country should you buy lumber and in which country should you sell it? c) Suppose that money-supply growth is higher in China than it is in Canada. What does purchasing-power parity imply will happen to the real and to the nominal exchange rate?

The Jamaican government is contemplating implementing a tariff for imported goods. Consider the Mundell Fleming - IS-LM Analyses with the exchange rate (e) on the vertical axis instead of interest rates (r) and the LM curve is perfectly inelastic. (a) Assume you are in an open economy with floating exchange rates. With the aid of carefully labeled diagrams, use the Mundell Fleming - IS-LM Analyses to illustrate the impact of an increase in tariffs on the exchange rate e, output Y. Explain your answer thoroughly. (b) Assume you are in an open economy now with fixed exchange rates. With the aid of carefully labeled diagrams, use the Mundell Fleming - IS-LM Analyses to illustrate the impact a tariff on the exchange rate e, output Y. Explain your answer thoroughly. (c) Which of the Two exchange rate regimes are better considering the results form parts (a) and (b), explain?
Assume that there is a free-floating exchange rate. Interest rates rise in the UK, relative to those abroad. Discuss the effect that you would expect this to have on exchange rates. You should consider the effect on currency supply and demand, and illustrate your answer with a diagram. You should also consider how this relates to the concept of uncovered interest rate parity, and discuss this with the help of an equation.
