实用国际金融英语参考答案

实用国际金融英语参考答案

《实用国际金融英语》参考答案Chapter 1Lead-in Activities1. Balance of payment data serve as record of the flows of goods, services and finance between an economy and the rest of the world. As one of the primary functions of the IMF is to prevent financial crises and assist countries in balance of payment difficulties, the collection of standardized, comparable balance of payment data is seen as a core task.BOP is a statistical statement that summarizes, for a specific period (typically a year or quarter), the economic transactions of an economy with the rest of the world. It covers:·All the goods, services, factor income and current transfers an economy receives from or provides to the rest of the world;·Capital transfers and changes in an economy’s external financial claims and liabilities.2. When a country has a surplus in its current account, i.e. when its exports exceed its imports, there will probably be a surplus in the balance of payment because the current account forms a very large proportion in the balance of payment. The surplus means the supply of foreign exchange exceeds demand. The monetary authority has to increase the purchase of the foreign currency and the stock of its international reserve. Meanwhile, the supply of domestic currency adds at an accelerated speed, which may lead to further issue of the local currency and cause inflation.3. When there is a long-lasting surplus in the balance of payment, particularly in the current account, there will also be excessive demand for its currency. The country’s exchange rate will rise, unless the central bank is willing to provide its currency to the market in exchange for foreign currencies. For example, when the export of the United States exceeds much more than import, a large quantity of US dollars are wanted by those importers to pay for the US goods. Thus, the exchange rate of US dollars rises.When the balance of payment has a long-lasting deficit, the payable debts denominated in foreign currencies are more than receivable claims; there will be a considerable demand for foreign currencies over the supply. As a result, the foreign currencies wanted appreciate, and the domestic one devalues.4.Temporary drop of surplus or moderate short-term deficit does not seriously affect a country’s economy or foreign trade. On one hand, deficit means larger amount of import than export in current account; on the other hand, it more likely shows an increasing demand of foreign currencies to pay for the imported goods. In other words, deficit may cause the raise of exchange rate of foreign hard currencies, which is conducive to the investors from the issuing countries of these appreciating currencies. This is surely good news to those that are in need of foreign investment. Temporary drop of surplus helps cool off the national economy and serves as a brake stopping ongoing inflation.5.The stock of international reserve should be neither more or less than necessary. The International Exchange Reserves are kept in the debit entry in BOP statements in that the monetary authority has to pay in exchange for the foreign hard currencies. Therefore, the amount and composition of exchange reserves are to be decided by taking the following factors into consideration.(1) The duration of the government’s external debt should be related to the duration of thereserves, with emphasis on the interest rate exposure risk.(2) High-risk-return assets should be limited within a safe range.(3) One of the most important issues raised in the context of investing the reserves of a centralbank is the choice of a reference basket.It is well recognized that the lowest level of the stock of international reserve should be no less than the amount payable for a 3-month import. And, the stronger an economy is, the less international reserve is to be kept.6. C7. CExercisesI. True or False1. F2. F3. F4. F5. F6. F7. F8. F9. F 10. F11. F 12. T 13. F 14. F 15.

CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTIONChapter OrganizationWhat is International Economics About?The Gains from TradeThe Pattern of TradeProtectionismThe Balance of PaymentsExchange-Rate DeterminationInternational Policy CoordinationThe International Capital MarketInternational Economics: Trade and MoneyCHAPTER OVERVIEWThe intent of this chapter is to provide both an overview of the subject matter of international economics and to provide a guide to the organization of the text. It is relatively easy for an instructor to motivate the study of international trade and finance. The front pages of newspapers, the covers of magazines, and the lead reports of television news broadcasts herald the interdependence of the U.S. economy with the rest of the world. This interdependence may also be recognized by students through their purchases of imports of all sorts of goods, their personal observations of the effects of dislocations due to international competition, and their experience through travel abroad.The study of the theory of international economics generates an understanding of many key events that shape our domestic and international environment. In recent history, these events include the causes and consequences of the large current account deficits of the United States; the dramatic appreciation of the dollar during the first half of the 1980s followed by its rapid depreciation in the second half of the 1980s; the Latin American debt crisis of the 1980s and the Mexico crisis in late 1994; and the increased pressures for industry protection against foreign competition broadly voiced in the late 1980s and more vocally espoused in the first half of the 1990s. Most recently, the financial crisis that began in East Asia in 1997 andspread to many countries around the globe and the Economic and Monetary Union in Europe have highlighted the way in which various national economies are linked and how important it is for us to understand these connections. At the same time, protests at global economic meetings have highlighted opposition to globalization. The text material will enable students to understand the economic context in which such events occur.Chapter 1 of the text presents data demonstrating the growth in trade and increasing importance of international economics. This chapter also highlights and briefly discusses seven themes which arise throughout the book. These themes include: 1) the gains from trade;2) the pattern of trade; 3) protectionism; 4), the balance of payments; 5) exchange rate determination; 6) international policy coordination; and 7) the international capital market. Students will recognize that many of the central policy debates occurring today come under the rubric of one of these themes. Indeed, it is often a fruitful heuristic to use current events to illustrate the force of the key themes and arguments which are presented throughout the text.。

An arbitrager could purchase 3 francs with $1, purchase 6 schilling with 3 francs, and sell 6schilling for $1.50. Ignoring transaction costs, the arbitrager realizes a $0.50 profit on the transactions.2. a. The U.S. speculator should sell francs today for delivery in 3 months at today'sforward rate of the franc, which equals $0.50.b. After 3 months, if the franc's spot rate is $0.40, the speculator can purchase francsat the price of $0.40 each and deliver them for the previously contracted rate of$0.50 per franc; the speculator realizes a profit of $0.10 on each franc which theforward contract specifies. If the franc's spot rate after 3 months is $0.60, thespeculator must purchase francs at a price of $0.60 per franc and resell them at aprice of $0.50 per franc; the speculator would suffer losses of $0.10 on each francspecified in the forward contract. If the franc's spot rate after 3 months is $0.50,the speculator realizes neither a profit nor a loss on the transaction.3. a. The U.S. importer can cover her foreign exchange risk by purchasing 20,000 poundsfor three-month delivery at today's three-month forward rate of $1.75 per pound.The importer is willing to pay 5 cents more per pound than today's spot rate toguard against the possibility that the spot rate in three months will exceed $1.70 perpound. In three months, when her payments are due, the importer will pay$35,000 and get the 20,000 pounds needed for payment, irrespective of what thepound's spot rate is at that time.b. If the spot rate of the pound in three months is $1.80 per pound, and the U.S.importer does not obtain forward cover, she must pay $36,000 for the 20,000pounds; this amount exceeds by $1000 the cost of the pounds she incurs byhedging.4. a. 1.7090, 1.7105, 1.7084, 1.7099, 1.7081, 1.7096, 1.7090, 1.7103.b. $0.5851 per franc, $1.7090 francs per dollar.c.

The 90-day forward franc was at a premium of $.0003 whichequals 0.2 percent on an annual basis.5. Arbitragers will buy pounds in New York, at $1.69 per pound, and sell pounds in London, at$1.71 per pound, thus making a profit of 2 cents on each pound. As pounds are bought in New York, their prices rises; as pounds are sold in London, their price falls. When the dollar price of the pound equalizes in the financial centers, the profitability of arbitrage ceases and the practice stops.6. a. The U.S. investor would purchase pounds on the spot market at $2 per pound, anduse the pounds to buy U.K. treasury bills in London; he would earn 4 percentannually more than he would if he had purchased U.S. treasury bills in New York.b.

Operational exchange risk: Nissan
The dollar fell to 80.41 yen against the yen Monday, its lowest since April 1995 and near its record low of 79.75 yen, before rebounding Tuesday. Each one-yen fall in the dollar slashes Nissan's operating profit by 15 billion yen, the company has said. Mr. Shiga declined to comment on whether the company would change its assumption for the dollar for this fiscal year from the current 90 yen, saying only that Nissan will explain further when it reports its July-September earnings on Thursday next week. Nissan said in July that it earned nearly half its expected operating profit for the full fiscal year in the first quarter, but it didn't lift its full-year forecast at the time partly because of the difficult outlook for the yen. The auto maker is reducing exports from Japan while increasing imports as a short-term measure to cope with the strong yen, Mr. Shiga said. The company needs to speed up shifting production overseas in the long term, he added. The car maker plans to produce 1.1 million vehicles in Japan during the current fiscal year through March.

The BOP is one of the most important economic indicators for the policy-makers in an open economy. It influences a country’s employment rate, interest rate, exchange rate and many other economic variables. Foreign exchange rate is the core subject matter in the theory of international finance. How the exchange rate is determined and why the exchange rate changes from time to time?
Growth in volume of world merchandise trade and GDP 2000 – 2011 (annual percentage change)
Figures for 2011 are projections Source: WTO Secretariat
Growth in world merchandise import by selected regions and economies (annual percentage change)


Financial derivatives such as currency futures, options and swaps provide valuable tools with the companies who face foreign exchange risk exposures. On the other hand, the derivatives are also used extensively for speculations. Some economists believe they are the major causes for 2008 world crises. Some firms, banks, and authorities have run up enormous losses either through taking of unduly risky positions or a lack of understanding the instruments.
