The Determination of the Equilibrium Exchange Rates Based on a General Equilibrium Model

In this paper, a general equilibrium model is developed to analyze the determination of the equilibrium exchange rates. The model can deal with multiple types of moneys and moneys are integrated into the model through demand functions. When the endowments, preferences, production technologies and interest rates are given, the equilibrium exchange rates, equilibrium prices, equilibrium outputs and equilibrium utility levels can be computed by the model. A numerical example of a two-country economy is also presented to illustrate the model.
