  3. Trade • Trading is the Buying (importing) & Selling (exporting) of different products between countries. • An Open Economy is an economy that engages in international trade.

  4. Trade • Domestic Trade is the buying and selling of goods & services in our own country. • Foreign trade (or international trade) means selling goods and services to, and buying goods and services from, other counties.

  5. International Trade • Some countries have a natural advantage over other countries in the production of one or more good or services. • Can you think of examples of these countries? • Countries tend to concentrate on the production of the goods & services in which they have an advantage & import the other goods they need.

  6. International Trade • International trade is subdivided into visible and invisible trade. • Visible trade deals with physical products that can be seen going out of, or coming into the country. • Invisible trade deals with services. No physical product can be seen going out of, or coming out of the country as a result of the sale or purchase of services.

  13. Exports • An export is a good or service provided by the residents of a country that causes money to come into the country when sold. • Exporting: selling goods & services to other countries. • Irish goods and services that we sell to foreign countries. • Money comes into the country.

  14. Visible Exports • Irish goods that are sold to foreign countries. • Money comes into the country. • Examples include: • Irish beef sold abroad. • Guinness sold to France • Waterford Crystal sold to USA.

  16. Homework 22.02.13 • Find an example of an import (visible/invisible) and an export (visible/invisible) over the weekend and take a photo of it using a camera phone. • Share the file using Google drive so we can make a class video explaining what imports and exports are.

  30. The Balance of Trade • The Balance of Trade is the difference between the value of visible exports and visible imports. • Ireland’s Balance of Trade figures (1990 – 2011)

  31. The Balance of Trade • If the value of visible exports is greater than the value of visible imports  Positive figure  Surplus  Favourable Balance of Trade

  32. The Balance of Trade • If the value of visible exports is less than the value of visible imports  Negative figure  Deficit UnfavourableBalance of Trade

  33. The Balance of Trade If the value of visible exports equals the value of visible imports  Balanced Balance of Trade

  34. Workbook question 4 page 88

  35. Workbook Question 5 page 88

  36. Balance of Invisible Trade • The Balance of Invisible Trade = Invisible Exports – Invisible Imports
