foreign debt=external debt

foreign liabilities = foreign debt + foreign equity (??)

no idea bout the second part

 

[Vana]

Foreign liabilites = what you owe to foreigners minus what they owe to you

 

[Blondie]

yeah, so foreign liabilities = debt - equity

i think. ugh this sucks.

 

[numg]

...... now im confused as well... and less than 24 hours till the exam thats not good...

i thought net foreign liabilities= net foreign debt + net foreign equity

i think you mean assets instead of equity....

 

[TastesGoodBut]

foreign debt is what we owe minus what we are owed (if its net foreign that is)

 

[monkey187]

umm i thought assets were equity
and i thought what u thought numg that
foreign liabilities = net foreign debt + net foreign equity


soo if u have the fige for foreign liabilities and foreign debt you can find foreigh equity by

NFL - NFD = NFE???

sumtin like that ne ways

 

[Littlelease]

Foreign liabilities does = debt + equity

It can go either way though...... we can owe them, they can owe us - both in debt and equity
