Question

You decide to work in japan for the next 10​ years, accumulate some​ savings, then move back to the united states and convert your savings from yen to dollars. at the time of your​ move, economists predict that consumers in the united states have reignited their love of japanese​ products, especially hybrid​ cars, and expect that this strong preference for japanese products will continue for the next decade. how should this influence your decision to work and save in​ japan?

Answer 1

You should be encouraged to work in Japan as the growing American preference for Japanese goods will lead to an increase the value of the yen relative to the U.S dollar and raise the value of your savings when converted to dollars.
