(i) National income & product accounts
• Definition of macroeconomics– Aggregates– Goods (& labor) markets may not clear in short run– => Role for fiscal, monetary & exchange rate policy.
• Definition of– GDP: value of all goods & services produced domestically– GNP: includes earnings from abroad– National Income: includes unilateral transfers.– Net National Income: subtracts depreciation of capital stock

Ways to decompose GDP• To whom the goods & services are sold (expenditure side of GDP):
– C – + I – + G – + X-M .
• How the income (Y) is used:– Taxes net of transfers, T, leaving disposable income :– Consumption C– + Saving S.
• Allocation of shares according to factors of production:– Wages & salaries– Capital income.

(ii) Balance of Payments accounts
• Definition: The balance of payments is the year’s record of economic transactions between domestic & foreign residents.

NOW CALLED “FINANCIAL ACCOUNT”
“Primary income,” mainly investment income
≡ “secondary income”
![Page 6: MACRO REVIEW in preparation for API 120](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050910/56815ecc550346895dcd5280/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Examples on the current account: • You, an American, buy DVDs from India
=> import appears as debit on US merchandise account.• You import services (electronically) of an Indian software firm =>
debit appears on US services account ( “overseas outsourcing”).• You buy the services, instead, from a subsidiary that the Indian
software firm set up last year in the US. This is not an international transaction, and so does not appear in the accounts.
• But assume the subsidiary then sends profits back to India => US reports payments of investment income. It is as if the US is paying for the services of Indian capital.
• Employees of the subsidiary in the US (or any other US resident entities) send money to relatives back in India => US reports paying unilateral transfers .

Examples of debits on the financial account(previously “capital account”), long-term
Instead of buying DVDs from India, you buy the company in India that makes them. => acquisition of assets (debit) under Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).
Instead of buying the entire company in India, you buy some stock in it => acquisition of portfolio investments (equities).
Instead of buying stock in the company, you lend it money for 2 years => acquisition of portfolio investments (bonds or bank loans).
API-120 - Prof.J.Frankel, Harvard University
![Page 8: MACRO REVIEW in preparation for API 120](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050910/56815ecc550346895dcd5280/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Examples of debits on the financial account, short term:
You lend to the Indian company in the form of 30-day commercial paper or trade credit => acquisition of short term assets (Debit: You have “imported” a claim against India.)
You lend to the Indian company in the form of cash dollars, which they don’t have to pay back for 30 days => acquisition of short term assets .
You are the Central Bank, and you buy securities of the Indian company (an improbable example for the Fed – but some central banks now diversify international investments) => increase in US official reserve assets.

The rules, continued
• Each transaction is recorded twice: • an import of a good or security has to be paid for.
E.g., when an importer pays cash dollars, the import on the merchandise account is offset under short-term capital: the exporter in the other country has, at least for the moment, increased holdings of US assets, which counts just like any other portfolio investment in US assets.
• At the end of each quarter, credits & debits are added up within each line-item;
• and line-items are cumulated from the top to compute measures of external balance.

Some balance of payments identities• CA ≡ Rate of increase in net international investment position.
– A CA surplus country accumulates claims against foreigners– A CA deficit country borrows from foreigners.
• BoP ≡ CA + KA• => BoP ≡ excess supply of FX coming from private sector,
which central banks absorb into reserves (if they intervene in the FX market, e.g., to keep exchange rate fixed).– A BoP surplus country adds to its FX reserves (esp. US T bills).– A BoP deficit country runs down its FX reserves,
unless it is lucky enough (US) that foreign central banks finance its deficit.
• A floating country does not intervene in the FX market• => BP ≡ 0;• Exchange rate E adjusts to clear private market FX supply & demand.

• Floating exchange rates work to isolate effects of demand disturbances within the country where they originate:– Effects of a domestic disturbance tend
to be “bottled up” within the country. In the extreme, floating reproduces the closed economy multiplier: .

Potential output
Three ways of computing :1. Aggregate production function Y = F(K,N)
– Substitute labor force employed at natural rate: N=,– capital stock K working at full capacity, etc…– Conceptually the right definition. But very hard to implement.
• For one thing, most of the action is in TFP.
2. Time trend– E.g., H-P filter.
3. Estimate as value of Y above which inflation tends to accelerate.

Part 5: Monetary policy• is another instrument to affect the level of spending.
• It can be defined in terms of the interest rate i, which in turn affects i-sensitive components such as I & consumer durables.
• Or it can be defined in terms of money supply M.– In which case an expansion is a rightward shift of the LM curve– which itself slopes up (because money demand depends
negatively on i and positively on Y).

Monetary expansion lowers i,stimulates demand, shifts NS-I down/out.
New equilibrium at point M.In lower diagram, which shows i explicitly on the vertical axis, We’ve just derived IS curve.
If monetary policy is defined by the level of money supply,then the same result is viewed as resulting from a rightward shift of the LM curve.

(b) If they devalue,CA deficit is again eliminated, at B,
but with the effect of pushing Y abovepotential output.

At F, TB<0 .
What would have to happen to eliminate trade deficit?

What would have to happen to eliminate trade deficit?
E ↑ . If depreciation is big enough, restores TB=0 at point B.
We have just derived upward-sloping external balance line, BB.
To repeat, at F, some of higher demand falls on imports.

What would have to happen to eliminate excess demand?
E ↓.
We have just derived downward-sloping internal balance line, YY.
At F, some of higher demand falls on domestic goods.
If appreciation is big enough, restores at C.

Summary: the combination of policy instruments to hit one goal slopes up; the combination to hit the other slopes down.
ITF-220, Prof.J.Frankel
Fiscal expansion (G↑) (or monetary expansion),at a given exchange rate => Y ↑ and TB↓.
Devaluation (E ↑) => Y ↑ and TB ↑.
If we are to maintain:Internal balance,
Y=External balance,
TB=0
then G & E must vary: inversely. together.
=> Internal balanceline slopes down.
=> External balanceline slopes up.
