can someone explain q15 to me?!?!? i dun get what the answers mean :( i put C and u guys say answer is D. can someone with strong economic knowledge (seems to be everyone but me) explain especially C and D? oh btw me 19/20 where q15 is wrong.

edit: oh seems it has been mentioned already... well more explanation plz! :)

more edit: as with Toby, i thought both were right... but if i had used my calc to work out TWI, i would've realised a change from 90.9 to 98 was more than "improved marginally", hence making D more correct... (f@*k!!) 20/20 gone!! :(

well guess not... not good enough skills i guess
there was an improvement in the terms of trade, meaning an increase in export prices relative to import prices (from 90.9 in year 1 to 98.2 in year 2)
this means that few exports would be required to buy the same volume of imports
i.e. D

i think u got 17/20, cos i checked the answers with my eco teacher after the test

umm q11
can someone check that?
you guys seemed to put A
I thought it was B (also checked after the exam)
cuz the RBA has to buy $A through selling its foreign reserves
A was there to trick you :)
well... at least i hope!!!!
eco teacher said 11 D, i put 11A, i think that's the only thing i got wrong
