The Balance of Payments
Balance of payments: the record of the transactions of the residents of a country with the rest of the world
Two main accounts:
Current account: records trade in goods and services, as well as transfer payments
Capital account: records purchases and sales of assets, such as stocks, bonds, and land
Any transaction that gives rise to a payment by a country’s residents is a deficit item in that country’s balance of payments.

slide 4
The Balance of Payments
The central point of international payments is very simple: Individuals and firms have to pay for what they buy abroad
If a person spends more than her income, her deficit needs to be financed by selling assets or by borrowing
Similarly, if a country runs a deficit in its current account the deficit needs to be financed by selling assets or by borrowing abroad
Balance: There is no change of official reserves! Otherwise,
BP=Current account + Capital account = 0 (1)
Current account surplus+ Capital account surplus = increase in official exchange reserves (BP Surplus)
Net private capital inflow

The Balance of Payments and Capital Flows
Assume a home country faces a given price of imports, export demand, and world interest rate, if
Additionally, capital flows into the home country when the interest rate is above the world rate
Balance of payments surplus is:
where CF is the capital account surplus The trade balance is a function of domestic and foreign income
and the real exchange rate
The capital account depends on the interest differential With perfect capital mobility, BP will balance only when

Floating & fixed exchange rates
In contrast, under fixed exchange rates, the central bank trades domestic for foreign currency at a predetermined price.
In a system of floating exchange rates, e is allowed to fluctuate in response to changing economic conditions.
Next, policy analysis – First, in a fixed exchange rate system Then, in a floating exchange rate system

slide 12
Fixed exchange rates
Under fixed exchange rates, the central bank stands ready to buy or sell the domestic currency for foreign currency at a predetermined rate.
In the Mundell-Fleming model, the central bank shifts the LM* curve as required to keep e at its preannounced rate.
This system fixes the nominal exchange rate. In the long run, when prices are flexible, the real exchange rate can move even if the nominal rate is fixed.

Lessons about fiscal policy
In a small open economy with perfect capital mobility, fiscal policy cannot affect real GDP.
“Crowding out” closed economy:
Fiscal policy crowds out investment by causing the interest rate to rise.
small open economy: Fiscal policy crowds out net exports by causing the exchange rate to appreciate.

Lessons about monetary policy
Monetary policy affects output by affecting the components of aggregate demand:
closed economy: M i I Ysmall open economy: M e NX Y
Expansionary mon. policy does not raise world agg. demand, it merely shifts demand from foreign to domestic products. So, the increases in domestic income and employment are at the expense of losses abroad.

slide 25
Lessons about trade policy
Import restrictions cannot reduce a trade deficit.
Even though NX is unchanged, there is less trade: the trade restriction reduces imports. the exchange rate appreciation reduces
exports.
Less trade means fewer “gains from trade.”
![Page 26: Mundell Fleming Ppt](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102605/5532f01c55034687698b4739/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
slide 26
Lessons about trade policy, cont.
Import restrictions on specific products save jobs in the domestic industries that produce those products, but destroy jobs in export-producing sectors.
Hence, import restrictions fail to increase total employment.
Also, import restrictions create “sectoral shifts,” which cause frictional unemployment.

Interest-rate differentials
Two reasons why i may differ from i* country risk: The risk that the country’s borrowers
will default on their loan repayments because of political or economic turmoil. Lenders require a higher interest rate to compensate them for this risk.
expected exchange rate changes: If a country’s exchange rate is expected to fall, then its borrowers must pay a higher interest rate to compensate lenders for the expected currency depreciation.

slide 32
The fall in e is intuitive: An increase in country risk or an expected depreciation makes holding the country’s currency less attractive.
Note: an expected depreciation is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The increase in Y occurs because
the boost in NX (from the depreciation)
is greater than the fall in I (from the rise in r ).

slide 33
Why income might not rise
The central bank may try to prevent the depreciation by reducing the money supply.
The depreciation might boost the price of imports enough to increase the price level (which would reduce the real money supply).
Consumers might respond to the increased risk by holding more money.
Each of the above would shift LM* leftward.
![Page 34: Mundell Fleming Ppt](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102605/5532f01c55034687698b4739/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
slide 34
Floating vs. fixed exchange rates
Argument for floating rates: allows monetary policy to be used to pursue other
goals (stable growth, low inflation).
Arguments for fixed rates: avoids uncertainty and volatility, making
international transactions easier. disciplines monetary policy to prevent excessive
money growth & hyperinflation.

CASE STUDY:The Chinese Currency Controversy
1995-2005: China fixed its exchange rate at 8.28 yuan per dollar, and restricted capital flows.
Many observers believed that the yuan was significantly undervalued, as China was accumulating large dollar reserves.
U.S. producers complained that China’s cheap yuan gave Chinese producers an unfair advantage.
President Bush asked China to let its currency float; Others in the U.S. wanted tariffs on Chinese goods.

slide 37
CASE STUDY:The Chinese Currency Controversy
Now China allows some flexibility of the exchange rate. Yuan has indeed appreciated.
If China also allows greater capital mobility, Will Chinese citizens start moving their savings abroad?
Is it possible that such capital outflows could cause the Yuan to depreciate rather than appreciate?

Next: to derive the AD curve, consider the impact of a change in P in the M-F model.

Large: Between small and closed
Many countries – including the U.S. – are neither closed nor small open economies.
A large open economy is between the polar cases of closed & small open.
Consider a monetary expansion: Like in a closed economy,
M > 0 i I (though not as much) Like in a small open economy,
M > 0 NX (though not as much)
