Question

a. to rise
b. to fall
c. to rise or to fall
d. to remain unaffected
Solution
to fall
Currency appreciation takes place when there is a decrease in the price of a foreign currency in terms of the domestic currency. Here, less rupees are required to buy one dollar, i.e. the value of domestic currency becomes more valuable in relation to a foreign currency. So, the quantum of imports will increase and the exports will decrease, and thereby it leads to a decrease in national income.
