- Suppose that you hold a piece of land in the city of London that you may want to sell in one year. As a U.S. resident, you are concerned with the dollar value of the land. Assume that if the British economy booms in the future, the land will be worth £2,000, and one British pound will be worth $1.50. If the British economy slows down, on the other hand, the land will be worth less, say, £1,500, but the pound will be stronger, say, $1.60 per pound. You feel that the British economy will experience a boom with a 60 percent probability and a slowdown with a 40 percent probability. Required: Estimate your exposure (b) to the exchange risk.

Assume that you are analyzing this mechanism in the case of a country that has an open economy (trades with the rest of the world) and that the monetary authorities decide to lower the rate of interest ‘r’ to stimulate real output and employment. To begin with, assume that this country is operating at less-than full employment. How does a fall in ‘r’ affect a country that is a net exporter ? What would happen if this country is a net importer ? Finally, how does a fall in ‘r’ affect the rate of inflation, other things being constant ?arrow_forward
