Currency exchange rates

Currency exchange rates, which affect the relative cost of locally purchased items such as bulk materials, when converted to a conventional pricing basis such as U.S. dollars. 

Because spending in various countries must be converted into a common currency, exchange rate changes can affect reported spending. 

Because spending in various countries must be convertedinto a common currency, exchange rate changes can affect reported spending. The devaluation of the dollar after 1985 maybe responsible for some of the unusuaUy high increase in total spending reported in recent years. 

A more interesting question that is more directly related to the issue of inflation is whether the currency exchange rate is expected to change over time. For example, assume that the exchange rate between the U.S. and Mexico is expected to decline at 1% per year over the next five years. As the exchange rate is merely an index to convert currencies, the change in the rate corresponds to inflation. See DeGarmo et al. (1997) and Lee and Sulhvan (1995) for more on this matter. 

The data that can go into computing factor returns will of course depend on what the factors are. It can include bond and index level data as well as currency exchange rates. Assume that we have the factor return series. To construct covariances, we could postulate that the underlying random processes are time stationary and compute covariances using equally weighted factor returns. We actually know that mar-...

The relative potency, p, functions here much like a currency exchange rate functions. It converts concentration of one metal into the equivalent concentration of the other. If one were interested in detecting trends away from perfect similar joint action and toward independent action, the absolute difference between estimated slopes from Equations (1.6) and (1.7), i.e., SlopeM - Slope 2 could be used as a metric of deviation from similar mode of action.

At this time, the economies of the world were tied together by the currency formalization of the Bretton Woods agreement of 1946. This system stabilized currency exchange rates, and because the United States was on the gold standard [17] it effectively fixed the price of gold at US 35 per...
