Document Summary

Net exports (exports minus imports) affect aggregate expenditures in an open economy. Exports expand and imports contract aggregate spending on domestic output. Exports (x) create domestic production, income, and employment due to foreign spending on u. s. produced goods and services. Imports (m) reduce the sum of consumption and investment expenditures by the amount expended on imported goods, so this figure must be subtracted so as not to overstate aggregate expenditures on u. s. produced goods and services. Shows hypothetical amount of net exports (x - m) that will occur at each level of gdp given in tables 9-1 and 9-4. Assumes that net exports are autonomous or independent of the current gdp level. Xn1 shows a positive billion in net exports. Xn2shows a negative billion in net exports. The impact of net exports on equilibrium gdp is illustrated in figure. Global perspective 10-1 shows 1999 net exports for various nations.
