Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The appreciation of a currency is shown by a movement up the exchange rate axis, indicating that one unit of the currency can now buy more foreign currency. Thus, moving from D to C represents an appreciation of the Canadian dollar, as it shows an increase in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to another currency.
