Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Net exports are the amount by which exports exceed imports or vice versa. It is a part of total spending on a country's output, as it represents the amount of goods and services that are sold abroad, thereby bringing in income from foreign countries. It is not already included in measures of consumption, investment, and government spending as it represents a separate category of spending. Net exports can be either positive or negative depending on whether a country is a net exporter or importer of goods and services.
