Balance of Payments Account Sum of all the transactions that take place between its residents and the residents of all foreign nations over a period of time. Credit = $ in (+) Debit = $ out (-) Current account = goods + services + net income flows Financial/Capital account = assets Official reserves account = foreign currencies owned by central banks of nations, used to balance out BoP

Current Account Goods = visible trade balance Services = invisible trade balance Workpoint 24.1 p. 295 What is an invisible import, a visible import, an invisible export, and a visible export on the UK current account? UK computer manufacturers buy semi-conductors from Malaysia. Lloyds of London sells insurance to Chinese shipping companies. Canadian football fans buy tickets to a Manchester United game. British football fans attending the World Cup 2010 stay in hotels in South Africa. France buys North Sea natural gas from UK companies.

Current Account Factor Income = use of factors of production owned by residents of other countries (profit, interest, and dividends from financial investment abroad) Transfers = net transfers of money that are not as payment for goods or services (foreign aid, grants, remittances, gifts) CURRENT ACCOUNT = balance of trade in goods + balance of trade in services + factor income flows + transfers

Net errors and omissions Financial Account Net change in foreign ownership of domestic financial assets Direct investment Portfolio investment Reserve assets Financial account + Net errors and omissions Current account

Crud… What’s the difference?? CURRENT ACCOUNT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT The transactions end No liability is created 1 and done Transactions continue Creates a liability

AP FRQ 2008 2. Balance of payments accounts record all of a country’s international transactions during a year. (a) Two major subaccounts in the balance of payments accounts are the current account and the capital account. In which of these subaccounts will each of the following transactions be recorded? (i) A United States resident buys chocolate from Belgium. (ii) A United States manufacturer buys computer equipment from Japan. (b) How would an increase in the real income in the United States affect the United States current account balance? Explain. (c) Using a correctly labeled graph of the foreign exchange market for the United States dollar, show how an increase in United States firms’ direct investment in India will affect the value of the United States dollar relative to the Indian currency (the rupee).

6 points (2 + 2 + 2) (a) 2 points: • One point is earned for stating that the transaction will be recorded in the current account. (b) 2 points: • One point is earned for stating that the current account balance will decrease or move toward a deficit. • One point is earned for explaining that the increase in income causes imports to increase. (c) 2 points: • One point is earned for a correctly labeled graph of the foreign exchange market for the U.S. dollar. • One point is earned for shifting the supply of U.S. dollars to the right and showing a depreciation of the dollar.

(ii) Capital account balance (c) Given the change in Mexico’s current account in part (b)(i), what will happen to the aggregate demand in Mexico?

7 points (3 + 3 + 1) (a) 3 points: • One point is earned for stating yes for Mexican consumers. • One point is earned for stating no for Mexican manufacturers. • One point is earned for the explanation that reducing tariffs will cause the domestic price of automobiles to fall in Mexico, lowering the production of cars in Mexico. (b) 3 points: • One point is earned for indicating that the current account will move toward a deficit. • One point is earned for the explanation that the reduction in tariff increases imports relative to exports. • One point is earned for stating that the capital account will move toward a surplus. (c) 1 point: • One point is earned for concluding that aggregate demand will decrease.
