EcCONOMICS P1 DOUBTS!

[Dasith]

hey da 29 th one its because:

When US interest rates rise < DEmand 4 us $ would increase because ppl would want to deposit money in USA due to high return , so ppl would Give Pounds to Get US $ in order to deposit their money in US banks , this would increase supply of Pounds in the currency market , as ppl are willing to supply pounds for $ 's this would cause supply curve to sh*t to the Right (S1)

& since UK interest rates are Down This would cause the Demand for Pounds to be less as ppl get less return, so the demand for Pounds would Drop form D to D1

& so we r left with only Point C yea?

Ah, ok. Dont worry, most likely will do much better this session. My AS Econ is a bit rusty or I would try answering the above ones. Hopefully you've figured them out by now though. Also keep in mind they usually always repeat 6- 7 questions from past papers, so read through all of them atleast once.

Also, this section is pretty much dead. Try posting on the xtremepaper forums. It's quite active there.
