Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

If a country spends more on goods and services and other items in the current account than it receives, it must have received the income needed to buy those items from investments from foreigners. In other words, a current account deficit must be offset by a surplus in the financial account. Apart from measurement errors, the sum of the current account and the financial account must equal zero. Therefore, the balance of payments must also equal zero.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
