Assume the United States Personal Savings equals zero. Using national income accounting concepts, show what this might mean for U.S. private investment spending and the US trade relationship with the world. How would the United States finance its investment spending? How would the US finance its government budget, especially if it becomes a budget deficit? Show and explain
this is a true or false question: "If social security payments to retirees increase, AD will increase and raise Y*." So if SS payments increase, that would increase GOVT transfer payments which would move the GOVT towards a deficit. But would it still increase Y*? Y* is the equilibrium spending or total value of spending in the economy, so I would assume so, right? can you explain this a bit more for me?
The following graph shows the market for loanable funds in Aperto, a large open economy. The government of Aperto has just instituted a tax hike, decreasing the deficit. On the graph, shift either the demand curve or the supply curve to illustrate the change in fiscal policy. (?) Domestic Saving Supply Demand Supply Demand 1 10 20 30 40 50 QUANTITY OF LOANABLE FUNDS The decrease in deficit causes the interest rate in Aperto to As an open economy, this change in interest rate causes the net capital inflow to Aperto to This change in net capital inflow causes Aperto's currency to which in turn causes Aperto's net exports to The change in net exports caused by the tax hike the impact on aggregate demand of the restrictive fiscal policy.

What does a budget deficit mean in technical terms. Give equations for both. Also draw a diagram to illustrate necessary fiscal policy implications.
