1.Define the nominal exchange rate of Mexico with respect to the US.
2.One dollar currently buys 3 pounds on the foreign exchange market. In a week's time it is expected to buy 5 pounds. Is the dollar expected to appreciate or depreciate with respect to the pound? Answer the same question assuming that the dollar is expected to buy 1 pound in a week's time.
3.The price of a loaf of bread is $1 in the United States, whereas it is 2 pounds in England. The prevailing exchange rate between the dollar and the pound is $1 for 4 pounds. Is this a sustainable exchange rate? If not, describe the changes that will bring the exchange rate to equilibrium.
4.Answer question 3 with the assumption that the exchange rate is $1 for 1 pound.
5.Provide a brief explanation of the purchasing power parity theory of exchange rates. Also state it utilizing the concept of the real exchange rate of a country.

11.State the interest parity condition. Provide a brief explanation of the reasoning behind it.
12.Utilize the concepts of the current account surplus and the interest parity condition to derive the demand curve for pesos in the peso-dollar market. Draw and label a graph depicting this curve.
13.Assume the prevailing floating exchange rate is above the rate that ensures equilibrium in the peso-dollar market. Explain the process via which the rate will fall to equilibrium.
Assume the prevailing floating nominal exchange rate is below the rate that ensures equilibrium in the peso-dollar market. Explain the process via which the rate will rise to equilibrium.
14.Assume the prevailing exchange rate in a fixed exchange rate regime is fixed above equilibrium (undervalued). Explain the steps the central bank of the country is taking to make this a possible scenario.
15.Assume the prevailing exchange rate in a fixed exchange rate regime is fixed below equilibrium (overvalued). Explain the steps the central bank of the country is taking to make this a possible scenario.
