C. increase by €100 million.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A) Increase by 50 million

Explanation:

A is correct.

Below is the current account balance calculation

CA = Sp -I + (T-G- R)

CA stands for Current account balance

Sp stands for Private sector savings

I is Investments, T = Taxes

G represents government spending's, whereas R = Transfers

CA = -25-(-25) + ( 100-50-0 ) = 50, increase by 50 million euro
