Econ 402 Final || with 100% Correct Answers.
What is the key macroeconomic difference between open economies & closed economies? Write

accounts identity, solving for net exports. What do positive net exports imply and what do
negative net exports imply about a country's output versus its domestic spending? correct
answers key difference is that in an open economy a country spending in any given year does not
equal its output of goods and services a country can spend more than it produces by borrowing
from abroad

Y=C+I+G+X-IM.

Y=C+I+G+NX.

If a country's output exceeds its domestic spending it exports the difference and net exports are
positive for the country's output fall short of its domestic spending it imports the difference in the
exports are negative.

called (give both terms)? If net capital outflow is positive, is the economy relative to the rest of
the world a net lender or net borrower? If net capital outflow is negative, is the economy relative

real interest rate for the interest rate. correct answers Economies output is fixed by the factors of
production, consumption is positively related to disposable income, and investment is negatively
