Answer and Explanation:

1. At 0fficial exchange rate:

100 * 0.5 = $50

what I want to buy would be purchased at $50

at market exchange rate:

0.25 x 100 = $25

products bought from this place are not a good deal as I am paying more than the market exchange rate.

2. at equilibrium exchange rate:

100 x 0.25% = $25

the price is $25

3. from answers 1 and 2, I will not want demand Stan's rupees. the products are costly to get.

4. Stan's currency is obviously overvalued. the people from this country now has increased purchasing power so they can purchase goods in dollars, therefore they would be supplying their currency.

5. They will have to buy up the surplus of rupees so that they can easily keep up with maintaining the rupee at half a dollar.
