Explanation / Answer

1. Decrease in Net Exports; Increase in net capital outflow - becasuse the car will have to be imported and the money paid will go to Japan from America.

2. Decrease in Net Exports; Increase in net capital outflow - the purchase of stake will lead to outflow of dollars for the purchased stake.

3. Increase in Net Exports; Decrease in net capital outflow - this is because the Japanese company will be investing money in the US based plant.

4. Increase in Net Exports; Decrease in net capital outflow - This is so because peaches are exported to Japan and the money in turn is received for the peaches by the US farmer.
