Consider a small open economy with desired national saving of Sd = 20 + 200rw and desired investment of Id = 30 - 200rw. Calculate national saving, investment, and the current account balance in equilibrium when the real world interest rate is

(a) rw = 0.025. (b) rw = 0.05. (c) rw = 0.0. (d) Now suppose something causes desired national saving to increase by 10, so that it is now Sd = 30 + 200rw. Repeat parts (a), (b), and (c). (e) Suppose, with desired national saving at its original level of Sd = 20 + 200rw, something causes desired investment to rise by 10, to Id = 40 - 200rw. Repeat parts (a), (b), and (c).
