1 Dealing with Foreign Exchange Chapter 7
2 Why Exchange Rates Matter? Wal-Mart 80% of Wal-Mart s suppliers produce in China 60% of Wal-Mart items produced in China If Chinese Yuan (RMB) appreciates then Wal-Mart will have to raise prices too. Why does China manipulate the currency? Need to keep people working Removal of constraints could cause 100m people to lose jobs 100m poor, starving people may be revolutionary Current debate in the US
3 Objectives Understand the evolution of the international monetary system What determines exchange rates today? What can firms do to insulate themselves from exchange rate risk?
4 Milk Prices
5 Exchange Rates (price of one currency in terms of another)
6 Same rates in very different locations (note, slight difference due to differences in market close from London to NYC
7 Exchange rates Dollar to Euro Euro to Dollar
8 Int l Monetary System Foreign Exchange Rate price of one currency in terms of another (i.e..89 per $1 or $1.12 per 1) Gold Standard ( ) Currencies pegged to value of gold Gold was common denominator for all currencies All exchange rates were fixed Predictable and stable Until England stopped converting in 1914 Tried to reestablish between WWs but not effective
9 Bretton Woods Conference July 1944 End of WWII Meeting of all 44 allied nations
10 Bretton Woods System Bretton Woods System ( ) Following WWII Chaos in foreign exchange markets Bretton Woods system Tied dollar to gold at $35 an ounce Other currencies pegged to dollar Problem: Other countries needed dollars as reserves assets Dollars flowing out. US printed more. But redeemable at $35 an ounce, gold flowing out too. Nixon suspended redemption in 1971, currencies allowed to float starting in 1973
11 International Monetary Fund International Monetary Fund international organization established to promote cooperation, exchange stability, and orderly exchange arrangements Today: lender to country s with balance of payment problems Loans are short term (1-5 yrs) Strings attached Reduction in fiscal expenditures Flexible exchange rates Greece had to be bailed out and once again is facing a similar bailout ( ional-monetary-fund-greece-bailout.html?mcubz=0 ) 1=ZZZZ&date1key=
12 Int l Monetary System Today No single agreement No official common denominator Although dollar is still a key currency Exchange rates determined by supply and demand Currencies traded like any other commodity Except with multiple prices, i.e US$ has a price in, RMB,, etc Governments can manipulate those factors Exchange rate policy
13 Exchange Rates Suppose the Euro Dollar rate is 1:$1 Suppose a case of French wine costs 1000 How much does the wine cost in the US? $1000 Suppose the dollar appreciates, 1:$0.80, how much does the wine cost? $800 Suppose the dollar depreciates, 1:$1.20, how much does the wine cost? $1200
14 Strong vs. Weak Dollar Advantages Strong Dollar Low price imports US tourists travel abroad cheaply Easier for US firms to acquire foreign firms Disadvantages Tough on exporters Hard to compete with low cost imports Foreign tourists find it difficult to visit US Advantages Weak Dollar Easier for US Exporters Less competition from imports Easier for foreign firms to acquire US firms Disadvantages Higher prices for consumers on imports US tourists find it hard to travel
15 Over vs. Undervalued Overvalued and Undervalued are relative terms Over or undervalued relative to what? Law of one price theory that all items should cost the same everywhere Doesn t hold: transport costs, tariffs, etc. Suggests that exchange rates should move in direction of law of one price otherwise known as Purchasing Power Parity
16 Debate Chinese Currency Manipulation
17
18
19 Groups China is manipulating their currency to artificially keep its value low and the value of the dollar high Question: Should China be allowed to artificially depress the value of their currency Write a brief press release addressing the issue. Groups: Politicians running for president US Manufacturing Unions Walmart Representatives Chinese ambassador to the US National Association of Consumer Advocates Senate Democrats House Republicans

21 What Determines Exchange Rates? Long Run Price Differences (PPP) Interest Rates & Money Supply Productivity and BOP Short Run Exchange Rate Policies Investor Psychology
22 Exchange Rates Appreciating Currency Appreciating currency (demand increasing) could be caused by: Prices falling in that country Interest rates increasing in that country Productivity increasing and businesses looking to invest Exchange rate policy of strong currency Speculators believe currency will increase in value and bid up it s value
23 Exchange Rates Depreciating Currency Depreciating currency (demand decreasing) could be caused by: Prices rising in that country Falling interest rates Political or economic uncertainty (less investment flowing in) Central bank printing money Speculators believe value will fall and stop buying
24 Purchasing Power Parity And Burgernomics
25 Big Mac Index / PPP steps Take Big Mac Price in foreign currency Divide by dollar price Gives implied PPP of dollar Compare PPP to actual Exchange Rate If: Actual ER < PPP dollar is undervalued Foreign currency is overvalued Actual ER > PPP dollar is overvalued Foreign currency is undervalued
26 Big Mac Index $ $ Real 9.50 $4.07 = 2.34 R/$ Compare to Actual Exchange Rate > mac index => The Real is Overvalued
27 Sample Problem Using the big-mac-index as our measure of PPP, is the Chinese yuan over- or under-valued vs. the dollar? Is the dollar over- or under-valued vs. the yuan? Big Mac price in US: $4.07 Big Mac price in China: Yuan Exchange rate: Yuan 6.45 / $1
28 Sample Problem 2 Big mac in US: $4.07 Big mac in Australia: A4.56 Exchange rate A.92/$ According to PPP, the US dollar should buy. $.. Australian dollars. The US dollar actually buys.92 Australian dollars. Therefore, the US dollar is Undervalued and the Australian dollar is. Overvalued
29 Strategies to Deal with Exchange Rate Risk
30 Risk and Objectives Objectives of firms differ Financial firms looking for risk and return More risk than minimal Non-financial firms want to preserve value Minimize currency risk potential for loss with fluctuations in exchange market (also called exchange rate risk)
31 Hedging Exchange Rate Risk Economic Exposure (Operating Exposure) Exchange rate risk as applied to the firm s competitive position Operational Hedge (Strategic Hedge) spread out activities in different currencies to offset losses in one with gains in another Transaction Exposure Exchange rate risk as applied to the firm s home currency cash flows Currency Hedge Financial transaction that protects traders and investors from exposure to the fluctuations of the spot rate
32 Strategies for Financial Companies Primary strategic goal is to profit from the foreign exchange market Market where individuals, firms, governments, and banks buy and sell currencies of other countries Functions To service the needs of trade and investment To trade in its own commodity
33 Strategies for Financial Companies (continued 1) Types of foreign exchange transactions Spot transaction: Classic single-shot exchange of one currency for another Forward transaction: Participants buy and sell currencies now for future delivery Currency hedging: Protects traders and investors from exposure to the fluctuations of the spot rate Forward discount: Forward rate of one currency relative to another currency is higher than the spot rate
34 Strategies for Financial Companies (continued 2) Forward premium: Forward rate of one currency relative to another currency is lower than the spot rate Currency swap: Conversion of one currency into another at Time 1 Includes an agreement to revert it back to the original currency at a specified Time 2 in the future
35 Implication for Action Exchange rate literacy and awareness is a must Profits or whole business model may be at risk Open accounts for exporters are risky Risk analysis must include currency risks Must have strategy for dealing with exchange rate risks Currency hedging Strategic hedging
