Purchasing Power Parity and Effect of Inflation on Currency Exchange Rate Illustration: Winning Lottery in a foreign country
Question
Congratulations, you just won the Irish Lottery! You bought a ticket while you were on vacation in Ireland, and your winnings amount to € 1 million (Euros) after all taxes were taken out. Respond to the following:
• If the current exchange rate is US$1 equals € 0.70, how much did you win in US dollars?
• Suppose that the interest rate in Irish banks is 2% for a one year CD. In the USA, the rate is 4% for a one year CD. If you left your winnings in Ireland, how many Euros would you have in a year? If you had taken your winnings back to the USA, how many dollars would you have?
• Suppose when you cashed in your CD in Ireland a year from now, the exchange rate had changed from US$1 to € .70 to US$1 to € .65. How much would your Irish bank account be worth in US dollars at that point? Would you have been better off leaving your winnings in Ireland or bringing them home to the USA?
• Explain how banks and individuals can use “covered interest arbitrage” to protect themselves when they make international financial investments.
• Using the theory of purchasing power parity, explain how inflation impacts exchange rates. Based on the theory of purchasing power parity, what can we infer about the difference in inflation between Ireland and the USA during the year your lottery winnings were invested? Be sure to show all calculations.
Summary
The question belongs to Economics and it is an illustration where you’ve just won a lottery of €1 million (Euros) after deducting taxes. Question such as the amount obtained when current exchange rate against $1 is €0.70 and leaving the money with Irish banks or bringing the money back to the US with different interest rates and different exchange rates in the months to come, etc have been answered in the solution with necessary calculations.

I have really benefited after taking help from HwA with my visual basic assignment solutions. The team here is excellent and during my course of VB programming, I got tremendous assistance. Starting from the basic concepts of classes and then window controls to web programming, I got help with each and every aspect of visual basic programming from HwA.

When it was time for me to start on my Stats Thesis Paper I was at a complete loss. I did not know where to begin even. That is when I contacted the experts at TheReliableTutor and the process from then on was as smooth as it could be. From the selection of the topic to reviewing the existing literature and finally putting it all together, I would not have been able to do any of it as well as I have without the constant help and support of the Stats Thesis Writing Expert at TheReliableTutor.
Arthur Pilger Student
I actually had a research topic in mind but was unsure of how to frame the research question. The research question assignment expert of HwA has helped me to narrow down the topic to one single question which became the foundation of my entire research. They also helped me with the actual research paper where I got excellent grades.

The coding is without flaw and only minor changes may have to be made now and then in the Programming assignment help that I have been receiving from TheReliableTutor. The packages are very affordable, that coupled with the highly qualified and professional online programming assignment experts residing in Singapore has definitely helped me get the top grades and hassle free services.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
