EXCHANGE RATE (Dollars per euro) The following graph shows the short-run supply schedule (S,) and demand schedule (D) for the euro. S, denotes the long-run supply schedule of euros. The initial equilibrium exchange rate is $1.20 per euro. Suppose that the demand for euros increases to D,. On the graph, use the tan point (dash symbol) to indicate the short-run equilibrium exchange rate. Then use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the long-run equilibrium exchange rate. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. The following graph shows the short-run supply schedule (So) and demand schedule (Do) for the euro. Si denotes the long-run supply schedule of euros. The initial equilibrium exchange rate is $1.20 per euro. Suppose that the demand for euros increases to D1. On the graph, use the tan point (dash symbol) to indicate the short-run equilibrium exchange rate. Then use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the long-run equilibrium exchange rate. Note:…
