11 THE MACROECONOMICS OF
OPEN ECONOMIES
Chapter 31
Open-Economy Macroeconomics:
Basic Concepts
Open-Economy Macroeconomics:
Basic Concepts
• Open and Closed Economies
• A closed economy is one that does not interact
with other economies in the world.
• There are no exports, no imports, and no
capital flows.
• An open economy is one that interacts freely with
other economies around the world
Open-Economy Macroeconomics:
Basic Concepts
• An Open Economy
• An open economy interacts with other
countries in two ways.
• It buys and sells goods and services in
world product markets.
• It buys and sells capital assets in world
financial markets
31.1 The International Flow of
Goods and Capital
• An Open Economy
• The United States is a very large and open
economy—it imports and exports huge
quantities of goods and services.
• Over the past four decades, international trade
and finance have become increasingly
important.
31.1.1 The Flow of Goods:
Exports, Imports, Net Exports
• Exports are goods and services that are
produced domestically and sold abroad.
• Imports are goods and services that are
produced abroad and sold domestically.
31.1.1 The Flow of Goods:
Exports, Imports, Net Exports
• Net exports (NX) are the value of a nation’s
exports minus the value of its imports.
• Net exports are also called the trade balance贸易余额.
31.1.1 The Flow of Goods: Exports,
Imports, Net Exports
• A trade deficit贸易赤字 is a situation in which net
exports (NX) are negative.
• Imports > Exports
• A trade surplus贸易盈余 is a situation in which net
exports (NX) are positive.
• Exports > Imports
• Balanced trade平衡贸易 refers to when net exports
are zero—exports and imports are exactly equal.
31.1.1 The Flow of Goods: Exports,
Imports, Net Exports
•
Factors That Affect Net Exports
• The tastes of consumers for domestic and
foreign goods.
• The prices of goods at home and abroad.
• The exchange rates at which people can use
domestic currency to buy foreign currencies.
• The incomes of consumers at home and abroad.
• The costs of transporting goods from country to
country.
• The policies of the government toward
international trade.

31.1.2 The Flow of Financial
Resources: Net Capital Outflow
• Net capital outflow资本净流出 refers to the purchase
of foreign assets by domestic residents minus the
purchase of domestic assets by foreigners.
• A U.S. resident buys stock in the Toyota
corporation and a Mexican buys stock in the
Ford Motor corporation.
31.1.2 The Flow of Financial
Resources: Net Capital Outflow
• When a U.S. resident buys stock in Telmex,
the Mexican phone company, the purchase
raises U.S. net capital outflow.
• When a Japanese residents buys a bond
issued by the U.S. government, the purchase
reduces the U.S. net capital outflow.
31.1.2 The Flow of Financial Resources:
Net Capital Outflow
• Variables that Influence Net Capital Outflow.
• The real interest rates being paid on foreign assets.
• The real interest rates being paid on domestic
assets.
• The perceived economic and political risks of
holding assets abroad.
• The government policies that affect foreign
ownership of domestic assets.
31.1.3 The Equality of Net Exports
and Net Capital Outflow
• Net exports (NX) and net capital outflow (NCO)
are closely linked.
• For an economy as a whole, NX and NCO must
balance each other so that:
NCO = NX
• This holds true because every transaction that
affects one side must also affect the other side
by the same amount.
31.1.3 The Equality of Net Exports
and Net Capital Outflow
• To see why this accounting identity is true, consider
an example.Suppose that Boeing, the U.S.aircraft
maker, sells some planes to a Japanese airline. In
this sale, a U.S.company gives planes to a Japanese
company, and a Japanese company gives yen to a
U.S. Company. Notice that two things have occurred
simultaneously. The U.S. has sold to a foreigner
some of its output(the planes), and this sale
increases U.S. Net exports. In addition, the U.S. has
acquired some foreign assets(the yen), and this
acquisition increases U.S. Net capital outflow.
31.1.3 The Equality of Net Exports
and Net Capital Outflow
• The equality of net exports and net capital outflow
follows from the fact that every international
transaction is an exchange. When a seller country
transfers a good or service to a buyer country, the
buyer country gives up some asset to pay for this
good or service. The value of that asset equals the
value of the good or service sold. When we add
everything up, the net value of goods and services
sold by a country (NX) must equal the net value of
assets acquired(NCO). The international flow of
goods and services and the international flow of
capital are two sides of the same coin.
31.1.4 Saving, Investment, and Their
Relationship to the International Flows
• Net exports is a component of GDP:
Y = C + I + G + NX
• National saving is the income of the nation
that is left after paying for current
consumption and government purchases:
Y - C - G = I + NX
31.1.4 Saving, Investment, and Their
Relationship to the International Flows
• National saving (S) equals Y - C - G so:
S
=
S = I + NX
or
I
+
NCO
Saving = Domestic Investment + Net Capital Outflow
• This equation shows that a nation’s saving must
equal its domestic investment plus its net capital
outflow. In other words, when Chinese citizens save
a dollar of their income for the future, that dollar
can be used of finance accumulation of domestic
capital or it can be used to finance the purchase of
capital abroad.

31.1.5 Summing Up
• Consider first a country with a trade surplus. By
definition, a trade surplus means that the value of
exports exceeds the value of imports. Because net
exports are exports minus imports, net exports(NX)
are greater than zero. As a result, income(Y=C+I+G
+NX) must be greater than domestic spending
(C+I+G). But if Y is more than C+I+G, then(Y-C-G)
must be more than I. That is, saving (S=Y-C-G)
must exceed investment. Because the country is
saving more than it is investing, it must be sending
some of its saving abroad. That is, the net capital
outflow must be greater than zero.
31.1.5 Summing Up
• The converse logic applies to a country with a trade
deficit. By definition, a trade deficit means that the
value of exports are less than the value of imports.
Because net exports are exports minus imports, net
exports(NX) are negative.Thus, income(Y=C+I+G
+NX) must be less than domestic spending (C+I+G).
But if Y is less than C+I+G, then(Y-C-G) must be
less than I. That is, saving (S=Y-C-G) must less
than investment. Because the country is saving less
than it is investing, it must be attracting some of its
saving abroad. That is, the net capital outflow must
be negative.

31.2 The Prices for International
Transactions: Real and Nominal
Exchange Rates
• International transactions are influenced by
international prices.
• The two most important international prices are
the nominal exchange rate and the real
exchange rate.
31.2.1 Nominal Exchange Rates
• The nominal exchange rate is the rate at which a
person can trade the currency of one country for
the currency of another.
• The nominal exchange rate is expressed in two
ways:
– In units of foreign currency per one U.S. dollar.
– And in units of U.S. dollars per one unit of the
foreign currency.
31.2.1 Nominal Exchange Rates
• Assume the exchange rate between the Japanese
yen and U.S. dollar is 80 yen to one dollar.
• One U.S. dollar trades for 80 yen.
• One yen trades for 1/80 (= 0.0125) of a dollar.
31.2.1 Nominal Exchange Rates
• If the exchange rate changes so that a dollar buys
more foreign currency, that change is called an
appreciation of the dollar.
• Appreciation refers to an increase in the value of a
currency as measured by the amount of foreign
currency it can buy.
• If the exchange rate changes so that a dollar buys
less foreign currency, that change is called an
depreciation of the dollar.
• Depreciation refers to a decrease in the value of a
currency as measured by the amount of foreign
currency it can buy.
31.2.1 Nominal Exchange Rates
• If a dollar buys more foreign currency, there
is an appreciation of the dollar.
• If it buys less there is a depreciation of the
dollar.
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• The real exchange rate is the rate at which a
person can trade the goods and services of one
country for the goods and services of another.
• If a case of German beer is twice as expensive
as American beer, the real exchange rate is 1/2
case of German beer per case of American beer.
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• The real exchange rate compares the prices of
domestic goods and foreign goods in the domestic
economy.
• The real exchange rate depends on the nominal
exchange rate and the prices of goods in the two
countries measured in local currencies.
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• Suppose that a bushel of American rice sells for
$100, and a bushel of Japanese rice sell $16,000
yen. What is the real exchange rate between
American and Japanese rice?
• Bushel: measure for grain and fruit (8 gallons
or about 36.4 litres)
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• The real exchange rate is a key determinant of how
much a country exports and imports.
Nominal exchange rate Domestic price
Real exchange rate=
Foreign Price
(80 yen per dollar)
($100per bushel of American rice)
Real exchange rate= 16,000 yen per bushel of Japanese rice
8000 yen per bushel of American rice
=
16,000 yen per bushel of Japanese rice
= 1/2 bushel of Japanese rice
per bushel of American rice.
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• A depreciation (fall) in the U.S. real
exchange rate means that U.S. goods have
become cheaper relative to foreign goods.
• This encourages consumers both at home
and abroad to buy more U.S. goods and
fewer goods from other countries.
31.2.2 Real Exchange Rates
• As a result, U.S. exports rise, and U.S.
imports fall, and both of these changes raise
U.S. net exports.
• Conversely, an appreciation in the U.S. real
exchange rate means that U.S. goods have
become more expensive compared to
foreign goods, so U.S. net exports fall.

31.3 A FIRST THEORY OF
EXCHANGE-RATE DETERMINATION:
PURCHASING-POWER PARITY
• The purchasing-power parity theory is the
simplest and most widely accepted theory
explaining the variation of currency exchange
rates.
• Purchasing-power parity is a theory of exchange
rates whereby a unit of any given currency should
be able to buy the same quantity of goods in all
countries.
31.3.1 The Basic Logic of
Purchasing-Power Parity
• The theory of purchasing-power parity is based on
a principle called the law of one price. This law
asserts that a good must sell for the same price in
all locations.
31.3.1 The Basic Logic of
Purchasing-Power Parity
• If the law of one price were not true,
unexploited profit opportunities would exist.
• The process of taking advantage of
differences in prices in different markets is
called arbitrage 套利.
31.3.1 The Basic Logic of
Purchasing-Power Parity
• If arbitrage occurs, eventually prices that differed
in two markets would necessarily converge.
• According to the theory of purchasing-power
parity, a currency must have the same purchasing
power in all countries and exchange rates move to
ensure that.
31.3.2 Implications of Purchasing-Power Parity
• Suppose that P is the price of a basket of goods in
the US. (measured in dollars), P* is the price of a
basket of goods in Japan (measured in yen), and e is
the nominal exchange rate (the number of yen a
dollar can buy). Now consider the quantity of goods
a dollar can buy at home and abroad. At home, the
price level is P, so the purchasing power of $1 at
home is 1/P. Abroad, a dollar can be exchanged
into e units of foreign currency, which in turn
have purchasing power e/P*. For the purchasing
power of a dollar to be the same in the two
countries, it must be the case that
1/ P = e / P*
31.3.2 Implications of Purchasing-Power Parity
1/ P = e /P*
• With rearrangement, this equation becomes
1 = eP / P*
• Notice that the left-hand side of this equation is a
constant, and the right-hand side is the real
exchange rate. Thus, If the purchasing power of
the dollar is always the same at home and abroad,
then the exchange rate----the relative price of
domestic and foreign goods---- cannot change.
31.3.2 Implications of Purchasing-Power Parity
1 = eP / P*
We can rearrange the equation to solve for the
nominal exchange rate:
e = P* / P
• That is, the nominal exchange rate equals the ratio
of the foreign price level (measured in units of the
foreign currency) to the domestic price level
(measured in units of the domestic currency).
According to the theory of purchasing-power parity,
the nominal exchange rate between the currencies
of two countries must reflect the different price
levels in those countries.
31.3.2 Implications of PurchasingPower Parity
• A key implication of this theory is that nominal
exchange rates change when price levels change.
The price level in any country adjusts to bring the
quantity of money supplied and the quantity of
money demanded into balance.
• When the central bank prints large quantities of
money, the money loses value both in terms of the
goods and services it can buy and in terms of the
amount of other currencies it can buy.

31.3.3 Limitations of PurchasingPower Parity
• Purchasing power provides a simple model of
how exchange rates are determined.
• Yet the theory of purchasing-power parity is not
completely accurate. That is, exchange rates do
not always move to ensure that a dollar has the
same real value in all countries all the time.There
are two reasons why the theory of purchasingpower parity does not always hold in practice.
31.3.3 Limitations of PurchasingPower Parity
1) The first reason is that many goods are not easily
traded or shipped from one country to another.
2) The second reason that purchasing-power parity
does not always hold is that even tradable goods
are not always perfect substitutes when they are
produced in different countries.
– Eg. some consumers prefer German cars, and
others prefer American cars. Moreover,
consumer tastes can change over time.
Summary
• Net exports are the value of domestic goods
and services sold abroad minus the value of
foreign goods and services sold
domestically.
• Net capital outflow is the acquisition of
foreign assets by domestic residents minus
the acquisition of domestic assets by
foreigners
Summary
• An economy’s net capital outflow always
equals its net exports.
• An economy’s saving can be used to either
finance investment at home or to buy assets
abroad.
Summary
• The nominal exchange rate is the relative
price of the currency of two countries.
• The real exchange rate is the relative price
of the goods and services of two countries.
Summary
• When the nominal exchange rate changes so
that each dollar buys more foreign currency,
the dollar is said to appreciate or strengthen.
• When the nominal exchange rate changes so
that each dollar buys less foreign currency,
the dollar is said to depreciate or weaken.
Summary
• According to the theory of purchasingpower parity, a unit of currency should buy
the same quantity of goods in all countries.
• The nominal exchange rate between the
currencies of two countries should reflect
the countries’ price levels in those countries.
