Suppose the U.S. government has just hired you to analyze the following scenario. Assume the U.S. agricultural industry grows concerned about the amount of fresh fruit imports to the United States, a practice that harms domestic producers. Industry experts claim that implementing a tariff on imports would reduce the size of the trade deficit. Complete the following exercise in order to help you analyze this claim. The following graph shows the demand and supply of U.S. dollars in a model of the foreign-currency exchange market. Shift the demand curve, the supply curve, or both to show what would happen if the government decided to implement the tariff. REAL EXCHANGE RATE (Units of foreign currency per dollar) Supply QUANTITY OF DOLLARS Demand Demand Supply ?

Q3. Recall a barter trade case, where the number N of prices needed to complete exchanges among n goods and services (G&S) is equal to N = n(n -1)/2 without money (but to N = n if money is instead used). This case can be used to account for why the U.S. dollar plays a pivotal role in global forex markets as a vehicle currency. Explain why the U.S. has maintained trade deficits with about 100 countries because of this role of its currency since it de-linked the dollar from gold in 1970. An awful situation is that the U.S. prints the dollar and uses it to buy various G&S all over the world. -

Suppose the foreign exchange market is characterized by the following equations: Qd = 12.5 – 1.25R Qs = 3.5 + 1.25R where Qd is the demand function for foreign exchange, Qs is supply function of foreign exchange, and R is exchange rate in units of domestic currency per unit of foreign currency (quantity is in million units of foreign currency). ===================== The foreign exchange market described above is Select one: stable unstable unpredictable none of the above
U S foreign exchange intervention is sometimes done by an Excha U.S. foreign exchange intervention is sometimes done by an Exchange Stabilization Fund, or ESF (a branch of the Treasury Department), which manages a portfolio of U.S. government and foreign currency bonds. An ESF intervention to support the yen, for example, would take the form of a portfolio shift out of dollar and into yen assets. Show that ESF interventions are automatically sterilized and thus do not alter money supplies. How do ESF operations affect the foreign exchange risk premium?

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has warned that a BoP crisis is imminent in Pakistan, if its economy grows more than 3.8% annually without fixing economic imbalances. Pakistan will have to fix its exports and reduce dependency on imports to avoid the next balance of payments crisis. “In the current structural and product specialization circumstances, if Pakistan’s economy is to grow faster than 3.8% in the medium-term, external imbalances will occur,” the report warned. The ADB paper noted that since end-2017, the government has implemented a number of economic reforms to address the BOP crisis, including regulatory measures, reduced imports, increased interest rates, and allowed depreciation of the exchange rate to the US dollar by almost 33%. Despite significant currency depreciation, merchandise exports did not pick up significantly and Pakistan’s total debt and liabilities have risen sharply. On average, over the last decade, Pakistan had lost global market share with foreign…

Suppose the U.S. government has just hired you to analyze the following scenario. Assume the U.S. manufacturing industry grows concerned about competition from low-cost producers overseas exporting their goods to the United States, a practice that harms domestic producers. Industry experts claim that implementing a tariff on imports would reduce the size of the trade deficit. Complete the following exercise in order to help you analyze this claim.

Country ABC operates under a system of fixed exchange rates. Therefore, the government of country ABC must ensure that the Balance of Payment (BOP) is nearly zero. Country ABC did not, however, achieve BOP zero in 2020. This could be brought on by trade surpluses or deficits. Explain how the administration of nation ABC could take to solve the issue of the BOP not being close to zero. Include the graph in your response, if possible.
There is trade between the U.S. (domestic country) and Great Britain (foreign country) and the quantity of pounds supplied is positively related to the exchange rate. The exchange rate is defined as the domestic currency price of the foreign currency, i.e., dollars per pound. Using clearly labeled graphs of demand for and supply of the foreign currency, show and explain what will happen to: (i) the demand for pounds and/or; (ii) the supply of pounds; and (iii) the value of the dollar against the pound as a result of each one of the following changes. (a) a decrease in tariffs in the Great Britain. (b) a decrease in prices of goods produced in China. Both the U.S. and Great Britain trade with China. (c) a decrease in interest rates in the U.S

Assume that in 2010, Country A had an exchange rate of 0.770.77 units of national currency (UNC) per U.S. dollar (USD). By 2015, Country A's budget deficit increased, and Country A decided to issue bonds to finance the deficit. As a result, the exchange rate changed by UNC0.06UNC⁢0.06. Calculate the 2015 exchange rate.
