If Numerator currency depreciates,If Numerator currency depreciates,

ee1 1 > > ee00:: $0.50 (e$0.50 (e00) to $0.65 (e) to $0.65 (e11), ),

then calculate % depreciation by usingthen calculate % depreciation by using

= (e= (e0 0 - e- e11)/ e)/ e11

And Denominator currency appreciates,And Denominator currency appreciates,

then calculate % appreciation by usingthen calculate % appreciation by using
