Read the passage carefully and answer the questions based on the passage:

Accounts in Balance of Payments

The current account is the record of trade in goods and services and transfer payments. Trade in goods includes exports and imports of goods. Trade in services includes factor income and non-factor income transactions. Transfer payments are the receipts which the residents of a country get for free, without having to provide any goods or services in return. They could be given by the government or by private citizens living abroad. Capital Account records all international transactions of assets. The capital account is in balance when capital inflows are equal to capital outflows. The essence of international payments is that just like an individual who spends more than her income must finance the difference by selling assets or by borrowing, a country that has a deficit in its current account must finance it by selling assets or by borrowing abroad. Thus, any current account deficit must be financed by a capital account surplus, that is, a net capital inflow. Apart from the current and capital accounts, there is a third element in the balance of payments called errors and omissions.

If India's current account balance is ₹-58 million and the capital account balance is ₹62.5 million. What will be the errors and omissions to have an overall balance in balance of payments?

₹4.5 million.

The correct answer is Option (4) → â‚¹4.5 million.

Current Account Balance+Capital Account Balance+Errors and Omissions=0

Given:

• Current Account Balance = ₹–58 million

• Capital Account Balance = ₹62.5 million

• Let E be the errors and omissions.

−58 + 62.5 + E = 0

E = â‚¹-4.5 million
