Answer: b. The quantity of the country's currency supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.
Explanation:
A country operating a fixed-exchange rate system would be actively trading its currency to ensure that it remains at a certain rate. If the currency is overvalued, it means that the currency is actually weak and is being propped up by the company's actions in the forex market.

Answer:
The real risk free rate is 3.8%
The exact risk-free rate is 3.68%
Explanation:
The interest rate on the Treasury bills is usually a combination of real risk free rate and inflation rate to compensate investors for average inflation in the economy during the instrument lifetime which equals nominal risk-free rate.
nominal risk-free rate = real risk-free rate+inflation rate
nominal risk-free rate=7%
inflation rate=3.2%
real risk-free rate=7%-3.2%
real risk-free rate=3.8%
The exact real risk-free rate can be computed thus:
nominal rate+1=(real risk-free rate+1)*(inflation rate+1)
real risk-free rate=(nominal rate+1)/(inflation rate+1)-1
real risk free rate=(1.07/1.032)-1
real risk-free rate=0.036821705
real risk-free rate=3.68%
