Question 8 • W Geography_B_IC

Which of the following situations would most likely occur if the dollar’s exchange value dropped in relation to the Japanese yen?

Answer
A
US citizens would be able to travel to Japan more cheaply.
B
Imported Japanese goods would become more expensive.
C
The US would export fewer products to Japan.
D
Fewer Japanese tourists would travel to the US.

Explanation

If the dollar loses value compared with the yen, each dollar buys fewer yen. Japanese products therefore cost more when US buyers pay in dollars, so imported Japanese goods would become more expensive. This makes choice B correct; US travel to Japan would also become more expensive, not cheaper.
