    In the given scenario, the dollar interest rate increases as the tax on interest rate earnings is removed,. Thus, the interest rate parity condition is given below:

    iH = iF + Ee/E - 1, where "iH=dollar interest rate" and "iF = euro interest rate" and "E=spot dollar-euro exchange rate".

    "iH" increases supposing the tax is removed, and in order to maintain the equality, "E" must decrease. Therefore, dollar-euro exchange rate decreases, Export will also decrease and import will increase. The euro interest rate will remain the same.
