  b. There is not enough information to determine what happens to these two macroeconomic variables.
  c. The real risk-free interest rate and net nonreserve-related international borrowing/lending remain the same.
  d. The real risk-free interest rate rises, and net nonreserve-related international borrowing/lending becomes more negative (or less positive).
