In periods of rapid U.S. growth, the rapid growth usually adds to large U.S. trade deficits by:
O increasing U.S. national income, which increased U.S. imports.
O reducing real interest rates in the United States.
O increasing U.S. national income, which decreased U.S. exports.
O increasing U.S. tax revenues and reducing the Federal budget deficit.
this question has three questions . What proportion of this country’s total gross capital formation (or investment) can be financed from national savings, and what part must be financed from external resources? What are the various forms these external resources could take? show in graph how the current account got a deficit of 12% GDP and the budget deficit of 3%.
Suppose a country has a large current account deficit (in the vicinity of 12% of GDP). It has a gross capital formation rate of 28% of GDP. The country has an overall budget deficit of 3% of GDP. The share of Household and NPISHs Final Consumption Expenditure is 68% of GDP and that of General Government Final Consumption Expenditure is 12%. What proportion of this country’s total gross capital formation (or investment) can be financed from national savings and what part must be financed from external resources? What are the various forms these external resources could take?
14. Consider a country in the two-period analysis of trade imbalances experiencing a trade deficit in period I and no

investment, which of the following will be observed?
a. The average standard of living in the country in period 2 will decline.
b. The average standard of living in the country in period I will decline.
c. The average standard of living in the country in period 2 will improve.
d. The average standard of living in the country in period I will remain unaffected.
e. The average standard of living in the country will remain stable over the two periods.

If %3D export value of Turkey equals ± 200 billion and it's import is $80 billion. Initially Turkey NX (net export) would display t billion deficit. If the nominal exchange rate increases suddenly from E1=4 to E2=5,5 while the price levels are still fixed (at the first step of J Curve) NX would be t billion deficit in short run. If the real exchange rate elasticity of export is 0,4 and real exchange rate elasticity of import is -0,4. NX would converge to t billion deficit in long run.arrow_forward
