Private saving is 207, taxes equal 99, government purchases are 77, and investment is 140. Calculate net capital outflows. Enter your answer only.
1) Saving - Investment = Net exports
Public saving + Private saving - Investment = NX
NX = (T - G) + 227 - 190
NX = (76 - 76) + 227 - 190
= 37
Net exports = 37
2) Public saving + Private saving - Investment = NX
Public saving + 159 - 107 = -79
Public saving = -131
3) Public saving + Private saving - Investment = NCO
NCO = (99 - 77) + 207 - 140
= 89
NCO = 89
