- Abstract
Recently, the pace and intensity of China’s loose monetary policy has continued to increase, and the short-term interest rate gap between China and the United States has fallen sharply, which may trigger the depreciation of RMB/USD. This study converts the changes in the exchange rate of RMB/USD into the equivalent value of China’s export subsidies and import tariff changes, and then uses the GTAP model to analyze the macroeconomic and industrial impacts of the exchange rate’s depreciating on China. The research results are as follows: Firstly, the decline of the RMB exchange rate has double impacts on China’s macro-economy. On the one hand, it may lead to an increase in China’s GDP, residents’ income, and foreign trade surplus. On the other hand, it may cause a decline in the welfare benefits of China’s household consumption, and the net return on capital repatriation and social welfare. Secondly, the depreciation of the exchange rate also may have two effects on China’s industries. On the one hand, it may expand China’s exports. On the other hand, it may lead to a decline in China’s output and imports, and also increase China’s price level.
