8. Suppose that last year, the nominal exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the British pound was ¥150.0 per £1.0, one unit of Japanese output cost ¥1300, and one unit of British output cost £8.0.a. What was the real exchange rate between the U.K. and Japan last year, expressed as the cost of British output (i.e. – the quantity of Japanese output that exchanges for 1 unit of British output)? In which country were goods more expensive last year?

Suppose that the current exchange rate is 1.48 euro = 1 pound, but it is expected to be 1.35 euro =1 pound in one year. If the current interest rate on a one-year government bond in the United Kingdom is 9 %, what does the interest-rate parity condition indicate the interest rate will be on a one-year government bond in Germany? Assume that there are no differences in risk, liquidity, taxation, or information costs between the bonds.
The German interest rate will be ________ %. (Round your response to two decimal places.)
1) Assume Turkish lira (TL) is expected to depreciate by 10% over the next year against US dollar. If the Turkish interest rate is15%, what would be the US interest rate that can make a Turkish investor to be willing to buy US securities today? Assume capital is perfectly mobile between Turkey and US.
2-) If the price level of Turkish goods is 200, the price level of foreign goods is 125, and the lira price of foreign currency is 1.20, what is the real exchange rate? What is the meaning of this rate for the competitiveness of Turkish goods?
3-)With the help of an IS-LM diagram show and explain the effect of restrictive monetary policy on output under flexible exchange rates and perfect capital mobility

Assume that both government securities are one-year bonds, i.e., paying the face value of the bond one year from now. Suppose that the exchange rate, E, stands at 1 Brazilian real per 0.79 Turkish lira. The following table gives face values and prices of both bonds: Face Value Price Brazil BRL 10,000 BRL 9,630 Turkey TRY 10,000 TRY 9,450 Compute the nominal interest rate on each of the bonds. Compute the expected exchange rate next year consistent with uncovered interest parity. If you expect the real to depreciate relative to the lira, which bond should you buy? Assume that you are a Brazilian investor. You exchange the reals for liras and purchase the Turkish bond. One year from now, it turns out that the exchange rate, E, is 0.75, i.e., 0.75 liras buy one real. What is your realized rate of return in reals compared to the realized rate of return…arrow_forward
