Assume the following exchange rates: $1 = nz$3, nz$1 = mxp2, and $1 = mxp7. given this information, as you and others perform triangular arbitrage, the exchange rate of the new zealand dollar (nz) with respect to the mexican peso (mxp) should and the exchange rate of the mexican peso (mxp) with respect to the u. s. dollar should a. appreciate; depreciate b. remain stable; appreciate c. appreciate; appreciate d. depreciate; depreciate

c. Appreciate; Appreciate

Explanation:

Triangular arbitrage is the act of taking an opportunity resulting from a pricing discrepancy among three different currencies when the currency's exchange rates do not exactly match up

This cases are very rare and for a quite short period of time so there are very few traders who takes the advantange of them.

Lets study th given cases here:

A) NZ dollar Versus Mexican Peso

The exchage rate is 1NZ$= 2 Mexican Pesos (MXP)

But if we apply the triangular arbitrage:

1 NZ dollar = 0.3333 US$

and we know tha 1 US$= 7 Mexican Pesos (MXP

Then 1 NZ dollar = 0.3333* 7 MXP= 2.333 MXP

So the NZ dollar appreciates

B) MXP Versus U$S

The exchage rate is 1 MXP= (1/7) U$S

But if we apply the triangular arbitrage:

1 MXP = 0.5 NZ

and we know tha 1 NZ= 0.333 US$

Then 1 MXP = 0.5* 0.333 U$S= 0.166 U$S

So the MXP appreciates

statement of owner's equity;

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable

3 wants

things that you do not need to have in order to survive, but would like to have

needs
