The dollar decreased in value against the peso in 2010. It started at 2,013 pesos and closed at 1,900 pesos, down 113 pesos. This decrease hurt exporters as their dollar income converted to fewer pesos, but it benefited importers who could buy more dollars with fewer pesos. The declining dollar value caused problems for companies' balance sheets as costs continued rising regardless of the dollar price.
