- In Japan, Honda’s export price per vehicle was 5 million yen when the exchange rate was 125 yen per US dollar ($). The expected inflation rate in the Japanese yen for next year is 1%. The standard inflation rate in the US is 3%. Honda is actively trying to limit the passing exchange rate changes in prices to 60% of annual changes (i.e., if, for example, the US dollar depreciates by 10% against the yen, Honda will consider depreciation of the US dollar by only 6% (=0.60*10%) to calculate the new prices of its vehicles in US dollars). What was the price in $ of a Honda at the beginning of the year?
