问题如下:
Over the past month, the Swiss Franc (CHF) has depreciated 12 percent against pound sterling (GBP). How much has the pound sterling appreciated against the Swiss Franc?
选项:
A.12%
B.Less than 12%
C.More than 12%
解释:
C is correct.
The appreciation of sterling against the Swiss franc is simply the inverse of the 12% depreciation of the Swiss franc against Sterling: [1/(1 – 0.12)] – 1 = (1/0.88) – 1 = 0.1364, or 13.64%.
考点:Percentage Change in A Currency
解析:A货币对B货币的升值幅度不等于B货币对A货币的贬值幅度。
在本题中,[1/(1 – 0.12)] – 1 = (1/0.88) – 1 = 0.1364, or 13.64%.
老师,您好,我印象何老师在讲课的时候,强调了一句:“大部分情况下,升值幅度会大于贬值幅度”。可以将这个结论用于做题,以提高做题速度吗?还是需要考试时候,一步步推导最准确
