    Please correct me if I am wrong here.

    A Euro/Dollar Exchange Rate of 1 Euro=$2

    If Euro has strengthened by 20% then
    1 Euro= $2.40
    We receive more $ / We pay more $

    If Euro has weakened by 20% then
    1 Euro= $1.6
    We receive less $ / We pay less $

    You are correct about the change in the exchange rate.

    However with regard to receiving and paying, it depends what currency you are receiving/paying and what your own currency is.

    If you are in the US receiving Euros, then if the exchange rate increases and you receive euros, then when converting to $’s you receive more dollars.
    If you are in the US and needing to pay Euros, then it costs you more dollars.
