Exchange Rate (vs USD)
An exchange rate between two currencies is the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another. That is, the exchange rate is the price of a country’s currency in terms of another currency. For example, if the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar (USD) and the Japanese yen (JPY) is 120 yen per dollar, one U.S. dollar can be exchanged for 120 yen in foreign currency markets. An exchange rate has two elements: a base currency and a counter currency. Given the relevance of the U.S. dollar as a reserve currency, most exchange rates use the USD as the base currency and the domestic currency as the counter currency. A few exceptions to this rule include the Euro and currencies of the Commonwealth (i.e. British Pound, Australian Dollar, New Zealand dollar), which use the domestic currency as base currency.
The table below shows the exchange rate versus the U.S. dollar (USD) by country for the last five years.
