a. U. S. goods to be cheaper than foreign goods.

Olive Huerta · Answer 2

Answer: C. foreign goods to be more expensive to residents of foreign nations

Explanation: When the dollar price rises in a country that the official currency is not the dollar, purchase of foreign goods becomes expensive.

For example, if in a country like Nigeria, 1 dollar equals 360 Naira and a resident has been purchasing goods outside Nigeria using the dollars, if 1 dollar increases to 400 naira, that becomes more expensive for the Nigerian (foreigner). Because the Nigerian now have to cough out 400 naira for 1 dollar as against the for 360 naira for 1 dollar.
