Why does the demand for foreign currency fall and supply rises when its price rises ? Explain.
The demand for foreign currency fall and supply rises when its price rises because domestic goods become cheaper. It induces the foreign currency to increase their imports from the domestic country. When the price of the foreign currency increases, this implies that the domestic currency has increased in terms of the foreign currency.in other words, it means that the domestic currency has depreciated.
