Answer 1

Answer:   2008      2013
U.S. $1 = 1.00 CAD    U.S. $1 = 0.99 CAD
U.S. $1 = 39.41 INR U.S. $1 = 54.80 INR
U.S. $1 = 0.69 EUR   U.S. $1 = 0.76 EUR
U.S. $1 = 6.78 ZAR    U.S. $1 = 8.46 ZAR

When you travel, it is better to visit a currency exchange and have your foreign currency exchange into the local or national currency of the country you are visiting. Cash transactions will be easily done once local currency is used. You don't need to worry about the exchange rate every time you purchase a commodity.

2013: US$ 1 = 54.80 INR

$25 x 54.80 INR/$1 = 1,370 INR

2013: US$ 1 = 0.99 CAD

$25 x 0.99CAD/$1 = 24.75 CAD

It would be cheaper to buy products in South Africa than in European Union. This is because the US dollar has a higher value in South Africa than in the European Union.

It would be cheaper to buy the product in 2008 because the value of US dollars in India is lower compared to its value in 2013.
