Abstract:
|
The Yuan-Dollar exchange rate has been a sore point in US-China trade relations
in the early to mid-2000s, with the US government asserting that the Yuan is
undervalued and that this provides an unfair advantage in trade to China. The
issue has been discussed in numerous economic, foreign relations, and
international trade studies.
While some analysts criticize China for not letting
the Yuan appreciate against the US Dollar, others consider the low US savings
rate to be the root cause of the US trade deficit with China. The case discusses
the issue and attempts to analyze the impact of China's currency policy on the
economies of both countries.
