Answer:

6.86011 Turkish liras per US dollar

Explanation:

US's inflation 3% for the next 3 years

Turkey's inflation 7% for the next 3 years

current Lira/Dollar spot rate (L/$) = 5.6702 (liras per dollar)

  • inflation rate US = (1 + 0.03)⁵ = 1.159274
  • inflation rate Turkey = (1 + 0.07)⁵ = 1.402552

difference = 1.402552 / 1.159274 = 1.20985 x current spot rate = 1.20985 x 5.6702 = 6.86011

Since the Turkish inflation rate is higher than the American inflation rate, then the Turkish lira will depreciate faster than the US dollar.
