You are a trader at Dolphin Capital. You see the following rates for NZD (New Zealand dollars) versus AUD (Australian dollars) in the market. The spot exchange rate (NZD per AUD) is 1.1000. The six month NZD interest-rate is 3% The six month AUD interest-rate is 2% The six month market forward (NZD per AUD) is 1.1125 - 1.113. (There is a bid-ask spread in the market forward but no bid-ask spread in the spot market). Assume that six months is exactly 0.5 year. Suppose that you are allowed to borrow 1 mio NZD (i.e., 1,000,000 NZD), how much arbitrage profit can you make? Give your answer to the nearest NZD.

ArtTech exports a specialized machine part to Japan. The price set in Japan is ¥120,000 and the cost incurred in the US is $800. The current exchange rate is ¥120 per dollar. Over a year the inflation rate in US is 2% and the inflation rate in Japan is 1%. The price in Japan increases with the local inflation rate and the cost in the US increases by the US inflation rate. What will be the percentage change in the profit per unit one year later if the exchange rate did not change? [First compute the profit before and after the price/cost changes due to inflation.] -1% -2% -3% If the market exchange rate remains constant while the PPP based exchange rate rises (for rates quoted as dollars per pound) the real exchange rate (dollars per pound) will: Increase Decrease If the nominal exchange rate (dollars per pound) remains constant and the inflation in UK is greater than the inflation rate in the US we can conclude that:…

Turkey experienced hyperinflation in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The exchange rate for the Turkish lira was TRL650,000=$1 on January 1, 2001. In 2001, inflation in Turkey was 140%, while in the USA was only 2.5%. This led the Central Bank of Turkey to implement a mini-devaluation policy at the monthly rate of 7.5%. What was the official exchange rate on December 31, 2001? Was the Turkish lira properly valued? (Hint: Pay attention to the monthly devaluation process)
Using data from The Economist's Big Mac Index for 2019, the following table shows the local currency price of a Big Mac in several countries as well as the actual exchange rate between each country and the United States. At the time of the data collection, a Big Mac would have cost you $5.74 in the United States and GBP 3.29 in the United Kingdom. The actual exchange rate between the British pound and the U.S. dollar was $1.25 per pound. The dollar price of a Big Mac purchased in the United Kingdom was, therefore, computed as follows: Dollar price of a Big Mac in the United KingdomDollar price of a Big Mac in the United Kingdom = = GBP 3.29×$1.25GBP 1.00GBP 3.29×$1.25GBP 1.00 = = $4.11$4.11 For the price you paid for a Big Mac in the United States, you could have purchased a Big Mac in the United Kingdom and had some change left over for fries! Complete the final column of the table by computing the dollar price of a Big Mac for the countries where this amount is…

Imagine you are a German investor trying to decide whether to buy American or European bonds. A ten-year bond issued by America’s Treasury today offers about 3%; German bonds return only 1.2%. But buying American means taking a gamble on the euro-dollar exchange rate. You are interested in the return in euros. The bond issued in the US will be attractive only if the extra yield exceeds any expected loss due to swings in currency markets. This thinking explains why the dollar has recently soared against the euro. In July 2022 the dollar reached a one-for-one exchange rate with the euro for the first time since 2002. Is it always true that a currency appreciates in value when the interest rate it offers increases relative to foreign interest rates? Explain.
