Consider the Inter-temporal Model with two time periods, t=0 and t=1. Home is a small open economy that can borrow and lend in the first period at the world real interest rate of 5%. In the first period, output is Y = 100 and in the second period Y₁ = 100. The country wants to smooth consumption as much as possible.
