Impact Of Currency Fluctuations On Foreign Trade

Before we look at these forces, we should sketch out how exchange rate movements affect a nation 's trading relationships with other nations. A higher currency makes a country 's exports more expensive and imports cheaper in foreign markets; a lower currency makes a country 's exports cheaper and its imports more expensive in foreign markets. A higher exchange rate can be expected to lower the country 's balance of trade, while a lower exchange rate would increase it.

Currency exchange rates can be categorised as floating, in which case they constantly change based on a number of factors, or they can subsequently be fixed to another currency, where they still float, but they additionally move in conjunction with the currency to which they are pegged. Floating rates are a reflection of market movement, demonstrating the principles of both demand and supply, as well as limit imbalances in the international financial system. Fixed exchange rates are predominantly used by developing countries as they are preferred for their greater stability. They grant further control to central banks to set currency values, and are often used to evade market abuse. (MacEachern, A. 2008; Simmons, P.

Currency fluctuations are the result of floating exchange rates. This can a negative or positive outcome for the company. This is mainly due to supply and demand factors in each individual market. In many instances nations can adjust their exchange rates.

The demand for imports should fall as imports become more expensive. However, some imports are essential for production or cannot be made in the country and have an inelastic demand—we end up spending more on these when the exchange rate falls in value. This can cause the balance of payments to worsen in the short run (a

Exchange rate risk is faced by businesses and investors due to change in exchange rates. An exporter is likely to experience shrinking sales, gross margins or both when domestic currency appreciates or foreign currency depreciated. The impact of fluctuation in exchange rates has significant impact on SMEs. In general, when the domestic currency appreciates, importers benefit and exporters are adversely impacted and vice versa. However, the impact varies from sector to sector. Furthermore, the ability of different sectors to withstand the impact is not the same. For instance, the IT sector having higher margins than the handicrafts sector, can relatively withstand the adverse impact of the appreciation of the rupee to a greater level.

The Glass Menagerie was a well written novel that I enjoyed because of all the different aspects of the characters lives and views of things. For example Laura an older single mother who wants the best for her two grown children Laura who is 23 years old and Tom who is the older brother. There father Mr. Wingfield abandoned them for long distance traveling and never came back so Laura is taking care of them on her own. Her daughter Laura is shy and quiet girl who has a crippled leg and cannot work because of it and her oldest son Tom is just like his father and wants to get out of Chicago and travel but he works for a factory to provide for his family. So that is the situation in the novel. The novel had little hints now and then about what was going to happen like from the characters talking,the subtitles, and the dramatic music that played throughout the play, so it was really easy to understand.

In 1983, Richard Messe and Kenneth Rogoff famously tested myriad empirical exchange rate models (Messe and Rogoff 1983). To this time, three competing models of exchange rates existed: a flexible-price monetary model, a sticky-price monetary model, and a sticky-price monetary model with the current account incorporated. The main finding of their paper was that a random walk explained data better than any fundamentals-based model. I argue that the demonstrative reasoning used by these models fails to accommodate the true nature of exchange rates and prices. Further, I propose an analytical narrative framework would best capture the complex and interconnected nature of exchange rates. In this short paper, I explore the failure of price
