Which оf the fоllоwing would never occur in situаtions of internаtionаl debt crises, as countries are trying to resolve them?
Chаpter 10 Fоrmulаs аnd Definitiоns All symbоls are as in the textbook and lectures. Unless otherwise stated, you can assume that two countries have purchasing power parity (PPP) and interest rate parity. Exchange rate when there is PPP: R = P / P*. In this formula, P and P* can be regarded as prices of individual goods or of consumption baskets. Approximate relationship when there is interest rate parity: i – i* = (F – R)/R. For the purpose of this test, take this equation to be exact, not approximate. You can also use the equivalent equation i – i* = F/R – 1. For this formula to work, i and i* must be fractional, not percentages. So, a domestic interest rate of 1.34% is written i=1.0134, a foreign interest rate of 22.5% is written i*=1.225. Note that you may be asked to enter answers as percentages, though. ***************************** Suppose that R, the spot exchange rate of the U.S. dollar for the Hong Kong dollar, is 0.125 US $ / HK $, while F, the forward exchange rate, is 0.135 US $ / HK $. If the interest rate in the U.S. is 11.5% what is the interest rate in Hong Kong? Enter your answer as a percentage, not as a fractional number. So, if your result is 1.0134, you must enter 1.34 (since this is 1.34%, but don’t enter the % symbol). Only exact answer is accepted, so double check your calculations.

For this question, consider only the expenditure directly associated with this purchase, not the separate transaction of exchanging U.S. dollars for Indian rupees which is possibly done before the purchase. In the U.S. Balance of Payments accounts, the purchase of the factory in India is entered as (Hint: is this a purchase of a good or service, or a purchase of an asset?)
