Question

Assuming sticky prices and given expectations of future exchange rates, what is the short-run effect on the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar (purchasing euros) and on domestic and foreign rates of return if there is a temporary increase in the quantity of euros?

Answer 1

Answer:please refer to the explanation section

Explanation:

An increase in the quantity of euros will lead to a decrease in demand for the euros currency and the current exchange rate will fall. a decrease in the current exchange rates will increase foreign rates of return because the difference between expected exchange rate and current exchange rage will increase.

Current exchange rate will decrease and foreign rates of return will increase

total foreign rate of returns = foreign interest rate + (Expected exchange rate - Current exchange rate)/current exchange rate
