According to the interest parity condition, if the domestic interest rate is 12 percent and the foreign interest rate is 10 percent, then the expected _________ of the foreign currency must be _________ percent. Group of answer choices

Respuesta :

Answer: Appreciation; 2%

Explanation:

From the information given in the question,

Domestic Interest rate = 12%

Foreign interest rate = 10%

Let's assume,

S = spot exchange rate

F = forward exchange rate,

Based on the per interest rate parity, the forward exchange rate will be:

F = S × (1 + 10%) / (1 + 12%) = 0.98x

F = S × (1+0.1)/(1+0.12) = 0.98x

Therefore, the forward exchange rate will be expected to fall by:

= 1 - 0.98

= 0.2

= 2%
