U.S. DOLLARS PER POUND 1. Equilibrium rate of exchange Suppose that, initially, the foreign exchange market between the United States and Great Britain is in equilibrium. Suppose that preferences for goods made in Great Britain change in the United States, causing U.S. consumers to purchase fewer goods and services made in Great Britain. Illustrate how this change affects the market for pounds by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. Supply Demand --- Supply K POUNDS Demand This change in the market for pounds causes the U.S. dollar to change in the demand for foreign currency for the United States?
