Although it is a member of the European Community, Denmark is not part of the
eurozone; it has its own currency, the krone. Because the krone is pegged to the
euro, Denmark's central bank is obliged to maintain the value of the krone within
2.25 percent either above or below the value of the euro. According to an article
in the Wall Street Journal,
in 2017, the Danish central bank was forced to intervene in foreign currency
markets "to keep the krone from strengthening too much."
If the krone was strengthening, did it take more kroner to exchange for a euro or
fewer kroner? Briefly explain.
More kroner, because the krone has more value.
Fewer kroner, because the krone has less value.
Fewer kroner, because the krone has more value.
More kroner, because the krone has less value.

- International Finance and the Exchange Rate - End of Chapter Problem At a family gathering, one of your cousins says, "We spend so much more on imports than other countries spend on our exports. It isn't fair, and we should raise tariffs on imports to reduce how much we buy from other countries." How might you explain to your cousin that current account deficits aren't necessarily a sign of economic troubles to come? Our current account deficits mean we obtain cheaper goods than we could otherwise. Most economists agree that an unequal bilateral trade balance is nothing to worry about. Contrary to common belief, the current account deficit does not suggest that we are living beyond our means. The flip side of the current account deficit is a financial account surplus, which could enhance future growth if the foreign spending it entails is directed toward high-quality investments.arrow_forwardRate the euro from May 31, 2013 until June 30, 2023.

Using data from The Economist's Big Mac Index for April 2002, the following table shows the local currency price of a Big Mac in several countries and the actual exchange rate. At the time, a Big Mac in the United States would have cost you 2.49 pounds. The actual exchange rate between the pound and the euro was £0.69 per British pound. The euro price of a Big Mac in the United States was, therefore, 2.49 British pounds x £0.69 per British pound = £1.71, which is less than you'd have paid in the UK. For the price you paid for a Big Mac in the UK, you could have purchased a Big Mac in the United States and had some change left over for french fries.
