Answer to Question 1

Expenditure switching refers to switching back and forth between domestic and foreign goods, in this case, in response to a change in the exchange rate. Expenditure switching magnifies the effects of monetary policy when rates are flexible. In an economy with a fixed exchange rate, changes in the money supply will not cause expenditure switching because the exchange rate does not change.

A
