6A: Purchasing Power Parity and Exchange Rate Determination
An arbitrage is best defined as:

) A legal condition imposed by the CFTC.
) The act of simultaneously buying and selling the
sahttp://www.wendangwang.com/doc/b87e4e90c5ea70e8f2d60762me or equivalent assets
or
for the purpose of making reasonable profits.
) The act of simultaneously buying and selling the same or equivalent assets or
for the purpose of making guaranteed profits.
) None of the above
: c)
Rate Parity
Interest Rate Parity (IRP) is best defined as:

) When a government brings its domestic interest rate in line with other major
financial
) When the central bank of a country brings its domestic interest rate in line
with its major
partners
) An arbitrage condition that must hold when international financial markets are
in
) None of the above

: c)
When Interest Rate Parity (IRP) does not hold

) there is usually a high degree of inflation in at least one country

A currency dealer has good credit and can borrow either $1,000,000 or €800,000
for one year. The one-year interest rate in the U.S. is i$ = 2% and in the euro
zone the one-year interest rate is i€ = 6%. The spot exchange rate is $1.25 =
€1.00 and the one-year forward exchange rate is $1.20 = €1.00. Show how to
realize a certain profit via covered interest arbitrage.

’s nothing in the problem to suggest that profits have to be in a particular
currency.
Suppose that you are the treasurer of IBM with an extra US$1,000,000 to invest
for six months. You are considering the purchase of U.S. T-bills that yield
1.810% (that’s a six month rate, not an annual rate by the way) and have a
maturity of 26 weeks. The spot exchange rate is $1.00 = ¥100, and the six
month forward rate is $1.00 = ¥110. The interest rate in Japan (on an
investment of comparable risk) is 13 percent. What is your strategy?
) take $1m, invest in U.S. T-bills
) take $1m, translate into yen at the spot, invest in Japan, repatriate your yen
earnings
into dollars at the spot rate prevailing in six months.

Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) theory states that:

) The exchange rate between currencies of two countries should be equal to the
ratio of the
’ price levels.
) As the purchasing power of a
currehttp://www.wendangwang.com/doc/b87e4e90c5ea70e8f2d60762ncy sharply declines
(due to hyperinflation) that

Deviations and the Real Exchange Rate
If the annual inflation rate is 5.5 percent in the United States and 4 percent
in the U.K., and the dollar depreciated against the pound by 3 percent, then the
real exchange rate, assuming that PPP initially held, is:
) 0.07
) 0.98
) –0.0198
) 4.5
: b) Rationale: Equation 6.14:

on Purchasing Power Parity
In view of the fact that PPP is the manifestation of the law of one price
applied to a standard commodity basket,
) It will hold only if the prices of the constituent
commodithttp://www.wendangwang.com/doc/b87e4e90c5ea70e8f2d60762ies are equalized
across

) Both a) and b)
) None of the above
: c)
Some commodities never enter into international trade. Examples include:

) Nontradables
) Haircuts
) Housing
) All of the above
: d)
Generally unfavorable evidence on PPP suggests that

) Substantial barriers to international commodity arbitrage exist
) Tariffs and quotas imposed on international trade can explain at least some of

) Shipping costs can make it difficult to directly compare commodity prices
