Consider a small open economy with desired national saving of Sd = 20 + 200 rw and desired investment of Id = 30 - 200 rw. Calculate national saving, investment, and the current account balance in equilibrium when the real world interest rate is
a. rw = 0.025
b. rw = 0.05
c. rw = 0.0
d. Now suppose something causes desired national saving to increase by 10, so that it is now Sd = 30 + 200 rw. Repeat parts a, b, and c.
e. Suppose, with desired national saving at its original level of Sd = 20 + 200 rw, something causes desired investment to rise by 10, Id = 40 - 200 rw. Repeat parts a, b, and c.
