      Solution

      According to the Mundell-Fleming model, in the short run, if an expansionary fiscal policy is undertaken under flexible exchange rates and perfect capital mobility, national income remains unchanged and the exchange rate appreciates. This is because the fiscal expansion leads to capital inflows, which cause the currency to appreciate, offsetting the expansionary effect on income.
