Consider a hypothetical open economy. The following table presents data on the relationship between various real interest rates and national saving, domestic investment, and net capital outflow in this economy, where the currency is the U.S. dollar. Assume that the economy is currently experiencing a balanced government budget. Because of the relationship between net capital outflow and net exports, the level of net capital outflow at the equilibrium real interest rate implies that the economy is experiencing___________ .Now, suppose the government is experiencing a budget deficit. This means that _________, which leads to ___________loanable funds.After the budget deficit occurs, suppose the new equilibrium real interest rate is 6%. The following graph shows the demand curve in the foreign-currency exchange market.
ASAP 9) Suppose that Americans decide to increase their saving.a. If the elasticity of US net capital outflow with respect to the real interest rate is very high, will this increase in private saving have a large or small effect on US domestic investment?b. If the elasticity of US exports with respect to the real exchange rate is very low, will this increase in private saving have a large or small effect on the US real exchange rate?

Consider an OPEN ECONOMY with a floating exchange rate regime. In the aftermath of recent elections won by the country’s socialist party, consumer confidence and consumption has increased dramatically. Within the IS-MP framework for an open economy, explain and illustrate graphically what the effect is of the increase in overall consumption on equilibrium output, the real interest rate, net cash outflow, the trade balance and the country’s real exchange rate.
What are some of the reasons a central bank is likely to care, at least to some extent, about the exchange rate?
