Abstract: In this study we examine the behavior of real exchange rates for Pakistan from 1960-1990.;We calculate the real exchange rate for Pakistan and examine how its determinants influence its behavior, we also determine a basis for estimating long run equilibrium real exchange rates. We construct a series for estimated equilibrium long run real exchange rates and on the basis of which we calculate an index for misalignment.;We examine the effects of misalignment on economic performance indicators and test the assumption that higher misalignment has to be associated with poor economic performance for a developing country.
