3.Differentiateamongthecurrentaccount,balanceoftrade,andbalanceofpayments.
BALANCEOFPAYMENTS
Whencountriestrade,financialtransactionsamongbusinesses/consumersofdifferentnationsoccur.Productsandservicesareexportedandimported,monetarygiftsareexchanged,investmentsaremade,cashpaymentsaremadeandcashreceiptsreceived,andvacationandforeigntraveloccurs.Inshort,overaperiodoftime,thereisaconstantflowofmoneyintoandoutofacountry.Thesystemofaccountsthatrecordsanation’sinternationalfinancialtransactionsiscalleditsbalanceofpayments.
Abalance-of-paymentsstatementincludesthreeaccounts:
thecurrentaccount,arecordofallmerchandiseexports,imports,andservicesplusunilateraltransfersoffunds,thecapitalaccount,arecordofdirectinvestment,portfolioinvestment,andshort-termcapitalmovementstoandfromcountries;
andtheofficialreservesaccount,recordsofexportsandimportsofgold,increasesordecreasesinforeignexchange,andincreasesordecreasesinliabilitiestoforeigncentralbanks.Ofthethree,thecurrentaccountisofprimaryinteresttointernationalbusiness.
