Answer to Question 1

A currency devaluation shifts the AA schedule outward from equilibrium point 1 to equilibrium point 2. The devaluation does not change long-run demand or supply conditions in the output market. Thus, the increase in the long-run price level will exactly offset the increase in exchange rate. Thus, a devaluation is neutral in the long run and this is the exact same scenario as for an increase in the money supply under a floating exchange rate.

Answer to Question 2

B
