international financial flows, draw an S/I diagram to illustrate the effect of

these policy changes on (1) U.S. interest rates and (2) the quantity of domestic

investment spending. Incorporate your numerical answers from part (a) into

your diagram.

and that the U.S. is small enough in the global financial system that you can

ignore the effect of these policy changes on global interest rates. Draw an S/I

diagram to illustrate the effect of the policy changes on (1) U.S. net capital

flows and (2) domestic investment spending. When drawing your diagram,

assume that the U.S. would have had net capital inflow without the policy

changes.
