THE MUNDELL-FLEMING MODEL2.32.22.12.01.91 9 17 25 33 41 49 57Figure 8.7: Exchange Rate Overshooting in the Dornbusch model withπ =0.15, δ =0.15, σ =0.02, λ =5.the monetary expansion produces a liquidity effectdi = − 1 dm < 0. (8.15)λDifferentiate (8.9) while holding i ∗ constant and use d¯s = dm to getdi = θ(dm − ds). Use this expression to eliminate di in (8.15). Solvingfor the instantaneous depreciation yieldsµds = 1+ 1 dm > d¯s. (8.16)λθThis is the famous overshooting result. Upon impact, the instantaneousdepreciation exceeds the long-run depreciation so the exchangerate overshoots its long-run value. During the transition to the longrun, i
