Answer to Question 1

The three balance of payment accounts are the current account, the capital account, and the official settlements account. The current account records exports, imports, net interest, and net transfers. The capital account records foreign investment in the United States and U.S. investment abroad. Finally, the official settlements account shows changes in U.S. official reserves, the government holdings of foreign currency. The relationship is that the current account balance plus capital account balance plus official settlements account must sum to zero.
