QUESTION 2 N Consider the exchange rate between U.S. Dollar and Mexican Peso: USD/MXN. If the supply curve for USD shifted from 100+e to 104+eN bln dollars per week and the demand curve shifted from bln dollars per week, then the exchange rate changed by 140-e - eN to 142-eN percent. Note: Type in your answer rounded to two decimal places, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99". I will not be able to fix correct answers that were entered incorrectly, such as "999.999" or "999,99" or "999". In case the last digit in the correct answer is zero, e.g., "999.90" or "999.00", Blackboard may automatically delete it and you should not do anything about it. In case of percentages, do not type in the percentage symbol "%". If your answer is a negative number, type a dash in front of your answer, i.e, "-999.99".

Purchasing-power parity (PPP) theory states that exchange rates would need to equalize the prices of goods in any two countries. For the dollar price Activity Frame o be the same in both countries, a U.S. citizen would need to be able to convert $5.74 into exactly GBP 3.29. To find the exchange rate at which hamburger purchasing power is the same in both countries, divide the price in the United States by the price in the United Kingdom: PPP Exchange Rate (U.S. Dollars per British pound) = $5.74 GBP 3.29 = $1.74 per pound The exchange rate that would have equalized the dollar price of a Big Mac in the United States and the Euro area (that is, the PPP exchange rate for Big Macs) is . This change would mean that the euro had against the dollar. If Big Macs were a durable good that could be costlessly transported between countries, which of the following would present an arbitrage opportunity? Check all that apply.

Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Consider the exchange rate between U.S. Dollar and Mexican Peso: USD/MXN. Initially, the supply curve for USD is 100 + eN bln dollars per week and the demand curve is 140 - eN bln dollars per week. There is a financial crisis in Mexico and the government fears that it may lead to capital outflows that would make the crisis even worse. They decide that if Mexican Peso depreciates by more than 20% the central bank will step in and fix the exchange rate. As the crisis unfolds the demand for the U.S. dollars increases to 142 - eN and the supply of dollars falls to 99 + eN. How should the central bank of Mexico react to this change?
Suppose the exchange rate between the Mexican peso and the U.S. dollar is 12 MXN = $1 and the exchange rate between the Hungarian forint and the U.S. dollar is 215 FNT = $1.a. Express both of these exchange rates in terms of dollars per unit of the foreign currency.b. What should the exchange rate be between the Mexican peso and the Hungarian forint? Express the exchange rate in terms of 1 peso and in terms of 1 forint.c. Suppose the exchange rate between the peso and the dollar changes to 9 MXN = $1 and the exchange rate between the forint and the dollar changes to 240 FNT = $1. For each of the three currencies, explain whether the currency has appreciated or depreciated against the other two currencies.
