Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A country which runs a current account surplus must either buy assets from foreigners or lend to foreigners. Hence, current account surpluses must match financial account outflows. In other words, when a country makes net sales of goods and services from foreigners, the country must make net asset purchases from foreigners. Therefore, there is likely to be a deficit of 0.4 billion in Techland's financial account.
