Q1. What will happen if a country allows its exchange rate to float freely?
      A. Foreign exchange reservrs will no longer be needed
      B. Inflation will follow the trend of inflation in the country's trading
          partners.
      C. The current account of the balance of payments will always balance
      D. The monetary authorities will lose their ability to contol the money
          supply

They will face losses sometimes and other time they wont .however , the countries will find other country who's inflation rate is stable . I am not sure about this .


Q2. In the US in the summer of 2000 the Yen was $ 0.50. In the summer   
      of 2001 the Yen was $ 0.75. How was this change likely to have
      effect the US ?
      A. higher demand for imports
      B. higher imported inflation
      C. higher priced exports
      D. higher unemployment
As i see it , the US has imported from a higher inflation . but it could also be higher demand for the imports . I think the answer is B.


Q3. The table shows the index of retail prices for a country on January 
      1st in successive years.
        Year ( Jan 1st)         Retail Price Index
             1990                        60
             1991                         80
             1992                        100
              1993                        125
             1994                          160
Which year has the highest rate of inflation?
    A  1990
    B  1991
    C  1992
    D  1993
In this question , the inflation rate has been the same amount rising every year , but in the year 1993 it has increased by 5 more ... could be the Answer .
