  • Question
    How do I know what to do in order to convert money?
    Community Answer
    Are you asking about how to calculate exchange rates? If so, there are smartphone apps that do that. You can choose any two currencies and see the exchange rate from one to the other. "Converting" money is really buying and selling. If you are 'converting' USD to CND (US dollars to Canadian dollars) for example, you would be selling USD and buying CND. Generally the USD is worth more than the CND so you would get more CND for each USD than you would if you were buying USD with CND.
  • Question
    If I go shopping and I buy something for 25 euros, is there a quick way to figure the price in USD?
    Donagan
    Top Answerer
    Find out the current euro-to-dollar exchange rate, and multiply it by the price in euros. For example, if one euro were worth $1.15, 25 euros would be (25)(1.15) = $28.75. With regard to a quick way, at the current exchange rate you'd just add an extra 15% to the price in euros to determine the USD cost.

  • Question
    How would I calculate the new exchange if the U.S. dollar were to decline by 5%?
    Donagan
    Top Answerer
    That would mean that every other currency would rise by 5% in exchange for a dollar (assuming all other factors remain the same). So multiply the other currency by 1.05. For example, if at the old rate one dollar was worth two units of the other currency, at the new rate one dollar would be worth (2)(1.05) = 2.1 units of the other currency.
