The supply of GBP in this case is simply determined by the domestic demand of the currency from abroad. An example of this can be seen when the United Kingdom want to import cars from say Japan. It is expected that the payment must be done in yen (¥). Hence, to make this possible, pounds (GBP) must be sold (supply).

a. In the first case John and Adam must sell pounds to buy dollars for use in Washington (Supply)

b. In the second case, the American company would have to purchase GBP to operate in London. Hence this is demand for currency.

c. In the third case, France uses the Euro and Germany also uses the Euro, hence there will be no exchange that has anything to do with buying or selling of the UK Pounds and hence it is neither demand nor supply.

d. In the fourth case, the GBP sent, must have to be sold and converted to Indian Rupee for it to be used in India by Kamran's parents, and hence this is known as supply of GBP.

e. Finally, an economics class from United States travelling to Uk would need to purchase GBP with his American dollar and hence this is part of demand for currency as it relates to the foreign exchange market for GBP.
