Abstract

Interest rate is one of the most used tools to determine the time value of money in investment projects. In this paper fuzzy regression analysis method is used to determine the relation among interest rate, inflation and the increases on export and import. The interest rate is formulated by using past data of interest rates, inflation, export and import sizes in Turkey. An illustrative example is given.
