A marine biologist is planning to move from Sydney, Australia to San Francisco. She has $5,000 Australian dollars (AUD) to make the move. In the summer of 2006, the exchange rate of USD/AUD is 0.765, and the USD is rising against the AUD. If the rising dollar trend continues, and all other economic elements remain equal, will her AUD be worth more USD now or later? Explain.

Now, if takes 0.765 USD to be equal 1 AUD. when the dollar increases, it will take fewer dollars to equal 1 AUD. for instance, it takes 0.5 dollars per 1 AUD. The conversion will change to:5,000 AUD * (0.5 USD/AUD)

5,000 * 0.5

= $2,500

so, her AUD will be worth more now.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Her present  $5,000 AUD is worth $3,825 USD.

Then

5,000 AUD * (0.765 USD/AUD)

5,000 * 0.765

= $3,825

So,

If the USD dollar increases against the AUD, then, the ratio will reduce.

For example, it takes 0.765 USD to be equal 1 AUD. when the dollar increases, it will take fewer dollars to equal 1 AUD. for instance, it takes 0.5 dollars per 1 AUD. The conversion will change to:

5,000 AUD * (0.5 USD/AUD)

5,000 * 0.5

= $2,500

Therefore, her AUD will be worth more now.
