Abstract [en]

The purpose of this study was to investigate if the relative Purchasing Power Parity holds for the Chines exchange rate since the reform on their currency in year 1994. Comparisons were made with Chinas three largest trade partners USA, UK and Germany between the years 1994 to 2013. Stationary and cointegration has been controlled on all variables in order to proceed to regression tests for the monthly data. We used data for the countries consumer price index, nominal exchange rate and real exchange-rate. The result of the study showed that the relative Purchasing Power Parity does not hold. We also used diagrams of the real exchange rate for a simplified test. These also showed that neither absolute nor relative Purchasing Power Parity holds.

Abstract [sv]

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om den relativa köpkraftspatiteten håller för den kinesiska växelkursen sedan deras reform på valutan år 1994. Jämförelser gjordes med Kinas tre största handelspartners USA, Storbritannien och Tyskland mellan åren 1994 till 2013. Stationäritet och kointegration har kontrollerats på alla variabler för att därefter kunna genomföra regressionstester av de månatliga data. Vi använde oss av data för ländernas konsumentprisindex, nominella växelkurs och reala växelkurs. Resultatet av studien visade att den relativa köpkraftspariteten inte håller. Vi använde också diagram av den reala växelkursen för ett förenklat test. De visade också att varken relativ eller absolut köpkraftsparitet håller.
