9. What if a foreign country purchases US Treasury bills? Would that fall into the Capital Account?
10. G'day Larry I understand what you are saying seems logical in regards to a management accounting perspective, however the guidelines are correct on labelling this on the CA. This is because computer equipment bought by a US business/person is actually importing something into the country from another country. This therefore goes under the trades balance section of CA. Try to think of it as objects that move/come to you ie dividends, imports are labelled on CA. If it stays ie a factory = CFA
11. Hey Sal, quick question.. On the College Board 2008 Exam for Macroeconomics, question 2a-ii, the problem asks whether the following scenario is a current account or capital account transaction: "A United States manufacturer buys computer equipment from Japan." According to the scoring guidelines, this is a current transaction. Isn't new computer equipment an investment asset? Capital?
