Q1- does purchasing power parity hold for the Turkish lira-U.S. dollar exchange rate?
Q2- Regress the rate of exchange rate changes (percentage change in the exchange rate) on the inflation rate differential to estimate the intercept and the slope coefficient, and interpret the regression results? (are the results support or are inconsistent with PPP theory ?
Q3- Discuss the relation between the percentage change in the exchange rate and the inflation differential?
