HOW DO WE MEASURE GLOBAL TRADE

• I. BALANCE OF TRADE

• II. BALANCE OF PAYMENTS

*

*Measuring Global Trade

• Balance of Trade -- The total value of a nation’s exports compared to its imports measured over time.

• Trade Surplus -- When the value of a country’s exports is more than that of its imports.

• Trade Deficit -- When the value of a country’s exports is less than that of its imports.

*Measuring Global Trade

• Balance of Payments -- The difference between money coming into a country (from exports) and money leaving the country (from imports) plus other money flows.

• The goal is to have more money flowing into a country than out – a favorable balance.

• An unfavorable balance is when more money flows out of a country.
