No Deviation From PPP • £ price of the product will rise in accordance with British inflation • Results • $price • $ AC • $ margin No change • Volume • Profit Presenter: Van Phan
Case 2: Real ER changes and self-contained subsidiary-Price-Taker • Perfectly competitive market • British operation services the local market and undertakes all production locally • £ depreciates in real term • £ Price: not change: price taker • $ Price: change • $ Costs: change • $ Profit margin: Decline in proportion of ER change Presenter: Van Phan
