(Ch. 8) Estimating Depreciation Due to PPP. Assume that St = 1.25 GBPUSD. How will this spot
\nrate adjust after one year, according to PPP, if the United Kingdom is expected to experience an
\ninflation rate of 5% while the U.S. is expected to experience an inflation rate of 3%? (6 points)
\n6. (Ch. 8) Forecasting the Future Spot Rate Based on IFE. Assume that the spot exchange rate of the
\nArgentine peso (ARS) is USD .011. The 270-day interest rate (annualized) is 1% in the United States
\nand 8% in Argentina. What will the spot rate ARSUSD be in 9 months, according to the IFE? (You
\nmay use the approximate formula to answer this question.) (6 points)
\n7. (Ch. 8) Deriving Forecasts of the Future Spot Rate. As of today, assume the following information
\nis available:
\nU.S. Mexico
\nReal rate of interest required by investors 2% 2%
\nNominal interest rate 3% 9%
\nSpot Rate (St) .042 in MXNUSD
\nOne-year forward rate (Ft,1-yr) .039 in MXNUSD
\n3
\na. Use the forward rate to forecast the percentage change in the MXNUSD over the next year. (5 points)
\nb. Use the differential in expected inflation to forecast the percentage change in the MXNUSD over the
\nnext year. (Hint: you can get the expected inflation using Fisher\u2019s formula \u2013i.e., the nominal interest
\nrate is equal to the real interest rate plus expected inflation.) (5 points)
\nc. Use the spot rate to forecast the percentage change in the MXNUSD over the next year. (5 points)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
