Explanation:
a. Total income formula is:
Y= C+I+G+NX
Y=20.1+3.5+5.2+(-1)
Y= $27.8 billion
b. In closed economies, income is calculated with this formula:
I=Y-C-G
I= 1.5-1-0.8
I= -$0.3 trillion
In open economies, income cannot be calculated because net exports (NX) data is missing.
c. NX is
NX= 576-445-115-81
NX= -$65 billion
NX is exports minus imports, in this case imports are more than exports. To calculate exports you need imports data.
Answer: Deficit
Explanation:
The current account shows the difference between imports and exports as well as net income from outside.
If this balance is zero, it means that imports are equal to exports and income sent abroad equals income recovered from abroad.
If real income in the US was to increase, people would demand more goods and services including more imports. This will shift the current account to a deficit as the imports will surpass the exports.
Answer:
A. National-security argument
Explanation:
The National-security argument is also known as the National-defense argument. The argument proposes the imposition of high tariffs on locally manufactured goods so that the country would not be dependent on other countries for those goods in the event of war. For example, if a country is dependent on other counties for the production of food, then it would be in great danger in the advent of war. Tires that are also used to prepare weapons should be sourced within a country so that in the advent of war, the country would not be dependent on others.
This is the argument employed by the congresswoman who sought the imposition of a tariff on tires so that the United States would not be dependent on other foreign countries during a war.
