Solution

According to Dornbusch's Overshooting Model, a monetary expansion will lead to:

A. A depreciation of the domestic currency

This is because, in the short run, an increase in the money supply lowers domestic interest rates. This makes domestic bonds less attractive, leading to a sell-off in the bond market. As investors sell their bonds, they also sell the domestic currency, leading to its depreciation.

In the long run, however, the currency may appreciate back to its original level as prices adjust. This is the "overshooting" aspect of the model - the immediate effect of the monetary expansion is an "overshoot" of the currency's depreciation, followed by a gradual appreciation back to its original level.

So, the correct answer is A. A depreciation of the domestic currency.
