A. Suppose the dollar interest rate and the euro interest rate are the same and equal 2 percent per year. Suppose the expected future $/€ exchange rate is $1.20 per 1 €. Suppose now Euro interest rate decreases to 1 percent per year. Determine how the new equilibrium $/€ exchange rate will change if the US interest rate remains constant. B. Indicate how the change in the Euro interest rate will affect the equilibrium $/€ exchange rate and the expected return on euro assets. Explain the changes on the graph.
