describe where the economy might be headed. The
World Bank warned on 14th June 2022, that global
economies were at risk of stagflation if not recession.

facing high inflation and slow growth at the same time.
Even if a global recession is averted, the pain of
stagflation could persist for several years - unless major

In the following problem, you will explore how saving and investment are connected to the international flow of capital and goods in an economy. Before delving into the relationship between these various components of an economy, you will be asked to recall some relationships between aggregate variables that will be useful in your analysis. Recall the components that make up GDP. National income (Y) equals total expenditure on the economy's output of goods and services. Thus, where C = consumption, I = investment, G = government purchases, X = exports, M = imports, and NX = net exports: Y = Also, national saving is the income of the nation that is left after paying for Therefore, national saving (S) is defined as: Rearranging the previous equation and solving for Y yields Y = .
