Using the theory of purchasing power parity and forecasts of expected inflation over the next year, forecast the spot exchange rate for the above for one year in the future.

S₂ = S₁ 1+ Expected (Annual Foreign Inflation)1+ Expected (Annual US Inflation)

where S₁ = Current spot rate expressed in European terms S₂ = Spot rate in one year expressed in European terms

Utilize the following data:

• S₁ = Current spot rates in one year expressed in European terms from above.
• Each countrys Inflation, GDP deflator (annual %) from your last weeks worksheet.
• US Inflation, GDP deflator (annual %) of 1.8%. (Instructor may update)
