Real Exchange Rates

    0.01 sec.
Real exchange rates
Exchange rates that have been adjusted for the inflation differential between two countries.

Real Exchange Rates
The purchasing power of two currencies relative to one another. While two currencies may have a certain exchange rate on the foreign exchange market, this does not mean that goods and services purchased with one currency cost the equivalent amounts in another currency. This is due to different inflation rates with different currencies. Real exchange rates are thus calculated as a nominal exchange rate adjusted for the different rates of inflation between the two currencies. See also: Purchasing power parity.
