What is the concept of the Law of One Price? What is absolute PPP? What is relative PPP? What is the rationale behind PPP? What are some possible explanations for the deviations from the purchasing power parity?
What is absolute PPP? What is the law of one price? What is
the difference between
these two concepts? If absolute PPP holds, would the law of
one price necessarily hold
for every good and service? Explain.
What is relative PPP? Derive this condition from absolute PPP.
If absolute PPP holds,
does relative PPP hold? Is the converse true? Explain.
Exchange rates are affected by the law of one price and
purchasing power parity (PPP) in the long-run. Exchange rates are
affected by the interest-rate parity condition in the short-run
(Interest rate on domestic bond = Interest rate on foreign bond

What impediments in the real world might prevent the Law of One
Price from holding for a particular good? How is the Law of One

Assume Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) holds in the long run
between the U.S. and Europe. What does this already imply for the
exchange rate E_($/€)? Write down your answer in the form of an
equation and a brief explanation. (2 pts)
Now assume we have PPP and also that the quantity theory of
money holds, with the velocity of money V constant and real output
Y fixed and constant in both countries. Suppose that the Federal
Reserve is expanding the...

What is law of demand? Explain why there exists a negative
relationship between the price of a product and its quantity
demanded? Note: discuss the three reasons why the law holds.
