Abstract

This paper introduces and describes the accompanying workbook, which contains data sets of both official and parallel (black market) exchange rates against the U.S. dollar for 110 countries from 1948 to 1999 annually. In addition, from these data sets implied inflation rates are calculated from both the official and parallel exchange rates using purchasing power parity (PPP). The data provide a powerful resource to those researching black market exchange rates and inflation, and allows for comparisons on a country-by-country level with ease. It is my intention that this data set and spreadsheet will be used for future academic analysis.
