Assuming the value of Kina appreciated from A$1=K1.30 to A$1=K1.20. The likely impact on PNG exports to Australia will

A. be expensive
B. be cheap
C. remain unchanged
D. increase
Choose the correct answer.

1 answer

The correct answer is A. be expensive.

When the value of Kina appreciates (meaning it takes fewer Kina to buy Australian dollars), it makes Papua New Guinea's exports more expensive for Australian buyers. This could lead to a decrease in demand for PNG exports in Australia, as they would cost more in Australian dollars.
