Currency Rates Multiply by the exchange rate to get the amount in the currency that is not the base rate (value of 1). Divide by the exchange rate to get the amount in the original currency (base rate of 1).

Examples: Exchange rate is $NZ 1 = $US 0. 814 If you have $NZ 600 how much will you get in $US? $US = 600 x 0. 814 = $US 488. 40 If you need to have $US 1000, how much will this cost in $NZ? $NZ = 1000 ÷ 0. 814 = $NZ 1228. 50
