问题如下:
During the most recent quarter, a steel company in South Korea had the following transactions
• Bought iron ore from Australia for AUD50 million.
• Sold finished steel to the United States for USD65 million.
• Borrowed AUD50 million from a bank in Sydney.
• Received a USD10 million dividend from US subsidiary.
• Paid KRW550 million to a Korean shipping company.
Which of the following would be reflected in South Korea’s current account balance for the quarter?
选项:
A.The loan.
B.Paid to the shipping.
C.The dividend.
解释:
C is correct.
The current account includes income received on foreign investments. The Korean company effectively "exported" the use of its capital during the quarter to its US subsidiary, and the dividend represents payment for those services.
考点:Balance of Payments
解析:A选项属于Financial account
B选项属于国内贸易
C选项属于current account
假如说是从美国那边进口到韩国一系列产品,然后是由韩国公司负责运输的,那这个产生的费用到底算不算到current account里面?
