Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

In a fixed exchange rate system, a country faces a balance of payments deficit when the supply of its currency exceeds the demand at the fixed exchange rate. The country can lower the value at which the currency is pegged to increase its net exports; this is called a devaluation.
