Interest rate is the main determinant of exchange value of a currency.
1. interest rate and value of currency are directly related to each other.
2. fall in interest rate of Us dollar means demand for US dollars will fall but its supply will rise leading to its depreciation.
3. Now people will try to maintain their accounts in UK pound to earn more interest therefore, demand for pounds will rise and its value will appreciate.
4. Finally we can say that exchange rete of UK pound will appreciate aginst US dollars and US dollar will depreciate against UK pound.

Hope you can evelaute these concepts by using demand and supply diagrams of currencies.
If u feel any difficulty to represent them graphically then do reply to this post.
thanks for ur contrbution to discussion of economics.

Can I get some past exams questions on Inflation and Unemployment Paper 4?
OK dear I will post them soon.
However you may check pastpapers as well. Mainly the question on types of unemployment comes in P4 and Inflation comes under the macro economic aims of the government and conflict between them. You may see June 2003 Q7 P4.

june 2004 paper 2(e) help?
It is caused by govenemnt action but it is not always the case because inflation may be caused by the consumers due to higher demand (demand pull inflation), may be caused by producers by reduced supply -cost push inflation and it may be caused by govt. monetary inflation.
