By the way all HSCers, my predictions for this year's eco essay is that there is going to be at least one policy question on external stability. I guessed last year there'd be unemployment or inflation, and both came up! So I wrote essays for both those topics beforehand and handed it to my teacher...I didn't memorise them, but I had a pretyt clear idea of what i was going to be writing so that's just a suggestion for you guys. External stability hasn't come up yet so that's my prediction for this year.....and I get the feeling that free trade and protection may come up somewhere in the globlisation section because of the US FTA and apparently we had a Thailand FTA last year right before my HSC....haha.

I am still typing the essays I wrote on une and inflation.....you guys can have a look and adapt it to external stability.

i think the paper was written back in the day of the AUD appreciation (according to my eco teacher with plenty of experience) which predates the actual FTA so *shrug*

External stability?

Topics for discussion:

Trade outcomes

- import and export bases, (direction, product and flow) impacting on the goods balance of the CAD

- structural change through microeconomic policy leading to increased productivity to increase relative imports to exports; trade reform, labour market reform etc.

- effect of microeconocmic reforms on international competitivness and their effect on eco growth, inflation and unemployment

- macroeconomic policy used to curb domestic growth and therefore decrease consumer purchasing leading to smaller good balance


Effects of CAD

- Constraints of debt and foreign liabilites (growth cannot outstrip liabilites)

- Shift from net foreign debt to net foreign liabilites

- DIAGRAM - net debt cycle from borrowings to finance CAD's


Fingers are sore from typing. Im sure you get the idea.
