Question 6

How many dollars would it cost to buy an Edinburgh Woolen Mill sweater costing 50 British pounds if the exchange rate is 1.25 dollars per one British pound?

Accepted Answer

To convert 50 British pounds to US dollars, we multiply by the exchange rate of 1.25 dollars per one British pound:
50 pounds * (1.25 dollars/1 pound) = 62.5 dollars. Therefore, it would cost 62.5 dollars to buy the sweater.

Question 7

If the goods' money prices do not change,an appreciation of the dollar against the pound

Accepted Answer

An appreciation of the dollar against the pound means that one dollar can buy more pounds. If the prices of goods in both countries stay constant, this means that American jeans will still cost the same in dollars, but British sweaters will now cost fewer dollars (because dollars are worth more compared to pounds). Therefore, British sweaters become cheaper in terms of American jeans.

Question 8

How many dollars would it cost to buy an Edinburgh Woolen Mill sweater costing 50 British pounds if the exchange rate is 1.50 dollars per one British pound?

To convert the cost from British pounds to dollars, multiply the cost in pounds by the exchange rate: 50 pounds * 1.50 dollars/pound = 75 dollars.

Question 9

What is the exchange rate between the dollar and the British pound if a pair of American jeans costs 50 dollars in New York and 100 Pounds in London?

Accepted Answer

To find the exchange rate, we need to see how much one dollar is worth in pounds. We can start by using the price of jeans in both cities. If 50 dollars are worth 100 pounds, then 1 dollar is worth 2 pounds (100 pounds divided by 50 dollars). Therefore, the exchange rate is 0.5 dollars per British pound.

Question 17

Which one of the following statements is the MOST accurate?

Accepted Answer

When a country's currency depreciates, its goods become less expensive for foreigners because they can now get more of the local currency in exchange for their own, and hence more of the local products. This can increase demand for the country's exports, leading to increased production and potentially economic growth.

Question 18

An appreciation of a country's currency

Accepted Answer

When a country's currency appreciates, the relative price of its exports increases and the relative price of its imports decreases. This is because the same amount of foreign currency can now buy more units of the domestic currency due to the appreciation. Therefore, a foreign buyer can purchase more of the country's exports with the same amount of their own currency, leading to an increase in the relative price of exports. On the other hand, it now takes fewer units of the domestic currency to buy the same amount of foreign currency, making imports relatively more expensive.

Question 19

How many dollars would it cost to buy an Edinburgh Woolen Mill sweater costing 50 British pounds if the exchange rate is 1.80 dollars per one British pound?

Accepted Answer

To convert British pounds to dollars, we need to multiply the amount by the exchange rate. Therefore, 50 British pounds x 1.80 dollars per one British pound = 90 dollars. So it would cost 90 dollars to buy the sweater.

Question 20

How many British pounds would it cost to buy a pair of American designer jeans costing $45 if the exchange rate is 1.60 dollars per British pound?

$45 ÷ 1.60 = £28.125
