What is Exchange Rate?
Exchange Rate is the price of one currency in terms of another.

Exchange Rate Regimes
• In a fixed exchange rate system foreign central banks stand ready to buy and sell their currencies at a fixed price in terms of dollar.
• In a flexible(floating) exchange rate system, the central banks allow the exchange rate to adjust to equate the supply and demand for foreign currency.
• When central banks intervene to buy and sell foreign currencies in attempts to influence exchange rates the system is known as managed floating or dirty floating.
-NOSSCIRE-
Depreciation and DevaluationA devaluation takes place when the price of foreign currencies under a fixed rate regime is increased by official action. Whereas, depreciation takes place when, under floating exchange rate regime domestic currency becomes less expensive in terms of foreign currency.
-NOSSCIRE-
Appreciation and RevaluationA revaluation takes place when the price of foreign currencies under a fixed rate regime is decreased by official action. Whereas, appreciation takes place when, under floating exchange rate regime domestic currency becomes more expensive in terms of foreign currency.
-NOSSCIRE-
What is Purchasing Power Parity(PPP)?Two currencies are at Purchasing Power Parity(PPP)
when a unit of domestic currency can buy the same baskets of goods at home or abroad.
What is Real Exchange Rate?The real exchange rate is the ratio of foreign to
domestic prices, measured in the same currency.R= e Pf /P
If RER=1 the currencies are at PPP.Why Reversing of Real exchange Rate to PPP is Slow
Market baskets differ across countriesBarriers to movement of goods between countriesNon-traded goods are part of price indexes
