Suppose PPP holds. Initially 85 yen (¥) buys the same in Japan as 1 Canadian dollar (C$) buys in Canada.
(a) What is the nominal exchange rate between the ¥ and the C$?
(b) There is then 3% inflation in Japan and 11% inflation in Canada. (This could occur over the course of just one year or over the course of multiple years, it doesn’t matter.) What is the nominal exchange rate after this inflation? Give the exchange rate to one decimal and in per C$1 terms.
(c) Did the Japanese yen appreciate or depreciate (in a nominal sense) over this period?

13) Suppose the interest rate in Canada falls and the interest rate in Japan remains the same. Interest rate parity implies that given equal risk A) the inflation rate is higher in Japan.

D) the yen is expected to appreciate against the dollar E) Canadian financial investments are less profitable. Answer: 0
Suppose that on January 1, the Yen price of the dollar is 95 (C$1= ¥100). Over the year, the Japanese inflation rate is 5%, and the Canadian inflation rate is 7%. At the end of the year, the exchange rate is C$1 = ¥98.

Assume that uncovered interest rate parity holds between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. If today the 1-year riskless interest rate in Japan is 5%, the one-year riskless interest rate in the U.S. is 1%, and the spot exchange rate is $.01 per yen, what is the expected exchange rate one-year from today? Suppose that expected inflation in the U.S. increased. What would happen to the current (spot) exchange, i.e. will it increase or decrease? Explain your reasoning.
