Why would Argentina have to give the United States seigniorage if it gave up its peso and completely dollarized its economy? How would you measure the size of Argentina’s sacrifice of seigniorage?

You may assume that the Argentine central bank’s assets consist of 100 percent of interestbearing U.S. Treasury bonds.)
