Exchange rate
The price of one unit of a given currency, expressed in terms of a different currency
The exchange rate indicates how much of a given currency (e.g., the respective national currency) must be paid in exchange for one unit of a different currency. As a rule, the exchange rate is determined on the basis of supply and demand, although it can also be fixed. The mexican Peso, for example, has a fixed exchange rate in relation to the US-Dollar.
