    Hello,

    Will I get full credit if for my solution I make references to cells rather than to absolute numbers? I mean instead of typing 1.95*1.08/1.02 in the cell, I type A1 (where the spot rate is located) * B1 (where the inflation in country A is located) / C1 (where the inflation of country B is located)?

    How far I need to go in explaining my calculations?

    Please let me know if my questions is clear enough.

    Thanks!

    You do not need to explain formulae that you have used, because the marker is able to see them when they come to do the marking 🙂
