摘要
Students take the roles of importers and exporters in a developing country. The experiment shows how international trade falls if the government tries to maintain an overvalued currency without expending international reserves. It also shows that the exchange rate in a parallel market without penalties (a gray market) approximates the free-market value of the currency, whereas the black-market rate need not do so.
