However, it was adversely affected when the Canadian dollar weakened against the U.S. dollar. Since Vegas did not hedge, its Canadian dollar receivables were converted into a relatively small amount of U.S. dollars.

Question One Zambia like many countries in the sub-Saharan region have run substantial fiscal deficits over the last decade while at the same time their monetary authorities have allowed money supply to grow excessively thereby fueling inflationary pressure (Zambia’s inflation reached 22.5% in mid-2021 and has remained above the 6-8% target). Zambia like most nations on the continent have turned to the IMF seeking bailout packages to avoid economic collapse.

As an economist hired by his Excellence president Hakainde Hichilema, using appropriate macroeconomic models explain the short run impact of the IMF prescription on economic activity, price level, interest rates, exchange, net exports.
1.On November 28, 1990, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan told the House Banking Committee that, despite possible benefits to the U.S. trade balance, “a weaker dollar also is a cause for concern.” This statement departed from what appeared to be an attitude of benign neglect by U.S. monetary officials toward the dollar’s depreciation.

What was the likely reaction of the foreign exchange market to Mr. Greenspan’s statements? Explain. b.
