Frenkel (1978) 40 3 International Parity Conditions runs regression1 for the monthly dollar-pound, franc-dollar and franc-pound exchange rates over the period of February 1921 to May 1925 during which exchange rates were flexible. His results are generally supportive of the PPP hypothesis in both the absolute and relative versions. However, Frenkel (1981) uses data from the recent float for the dollar-pound, dollar-franc and dollar-mark exchange rates and finds that PPP is not supported by the data.

C) If the importer incurs a 15% cost to cover transportation, administrative and other fees, does arbitrage still exist? We discuss these three questions in the following. (a) It is cheaper to buy the car in France. 4/£, resulting in €133,000. 8% [(133,000-120,000)/120,000]. Arbitrage will take place. The price of Mini Cooper will rise in France and fall in the UK until the arbitrage opportunity is wiped out. 57, higher than £950, the price of a Mini Cooper currently prevailing in the UK. So, it is not profitable to import Mini Cooper from France in this case.

The early application of the cointegration approach to testing for PPP is based on the Engle and Granger (1987) two-step procedure. Taylor (1988), Enders (1988), Mark (1990) and Patel (1990), among others, carried out investigations in this framework for the recent floating period; whereas Kim (1990) employs data sets spanning most of the 20th century. In general, the empirical tests adopting the EngleGranger two-step procedure generally fail to observe long-run tendencies for nominal exchange rates and relative prices to settle down on an equilibrium track.
