In an open economy, spending need not equal _______ saving need not equal ___________
EX = exports = foreign spending on domestic goods
IM = imports = domestic spending on foreign goods
NX = net exports (a.k.a. the “trade balance”) = EX – IM

The national income identity in an open economy
Y = C + I + G + NX
or, NX = Y – (C + I + G )
net exports
trade surplus: output __ spending and EX __ IM trade deficit: spending __ output and IM __ EX

International capital flows Net capital outflow

the country’s purchases of foreign assets minus foreign purchases of domestic assets
When S > I, country is a _________
When S < I, country is a ____________

Two exchange rates
e = nominal exchange rate, the relative price of domestic currency in terms of foreign currency
(e.g. Yen per Dollar)
ε = real exchange rate, the relative price of domestic goods in terms of foreign goods
(e.g. Japanese Big Macs per U.S. Big Mac)

How ε is determined The accounting identity says NX = S – I We saw earlier how S – I is determined:
• S depends on domestic factors (output, fiscal policy variables, etc)
• I is determined by the world interest rate r *
So, ε must adjust to ensure

The U.S. as a large open economy So far, we’ve learned long-run models for
two extreme cases:• closed economy (chap. 3)• small open economy (chap. 5)
A large open economy – like the U.S. – falls___________ these two extremes.
The results from large open economy analysis are a ___________ of the results for the closed & small open economy cases.
For example…

Summary
1. Net exports--the difference between • exports and imports• a country’s output (Y )
and its spending (C + I + G)
2. Net capital outflow equals• purchases of foreign assets
minus foreign purchases of the country’s assets• the difference between saving and investment
3. National income accounts identities:• Y = C + I + G + NX• trade balance NX = S - I net capital outflow
![Page 42: Ohio Wesleyan University Goran Skosples 6. The Open Economy](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56816046550346895dcf683f/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
Summary
4. Impact of policies on NX :• NX increases if policy causes S to rise or I to
fall• NX does not change if policy affects
neither S nor I. Example: trade policy
5. Exchange rates• nominal: the price of a country’s currency in
terms of another country’s currency• real: the price of a country’s goods in terms of
another country’s goods.• the real exchange rate equals the nominal rate
times the ratio of prices of the two countries.

Summary
7. How the real exchange rate is determined• NX depends negatively on the real exchange
rate, other things equal• The real exchange rate adjusts to equate
NX with net capital outflow
