a. Real exchange rate = $0.62×(1.5/1) = $0.93 per Swiss franc.
The inflation differential between the United States and Switzerland is 4.5%-2%= 2.5%. U.S. inflation minus Swiss inflation is –2.5 percent. Thus, for real exchange rates to remain the same, the Swiss franc would have to depreciate by 2.5 percent.
The expected exchange rate = $0.62×(1 −2.5%) = $0.6045 per Swiss franc.
The real exchange rate would then be = $0.6045×(1.56/1.015) = $0.93 per Swiss franc.
The expected return on the Swiss bond = (1 + 4.5%) (1 – 2.5%) −1 = 1.%
b. If the exchange rate at the end of one year is $0.63 per Swiss franc, the Swiss franc has appreciated by 1.61%
The real exchange rate is = $0.63×(1.56/1.015) = $0.9683 per Swiss franc.
The return on the Swiss bond = (1 + 4.5% )(1 +1.61%) −1 = 6.18%.
The return on the Swiss bond is higher than in part(a) because the Swiss franc has appreciated by 1.61% in part(b), whereas the Swiss franc depreciated by2.5% in part(a).
