BP Schedule A set of real income-nominal interest rate combinations that maintain a zero balance for private payments - sometimes called a “balance of payments equilibrium” in the balance of payments accounts.
BP Schedule Any point (A or B) on the BP schedule entails external balance: zero private payment. Interest rate BP B r2 A r1 Real income y1 y2
BP Schedule Starting from point A, if income rises to y2, imports rises to higher level and a Deficit will develop (C). This requires a higher interest rate to attract foreign funds to cancel the trade deficit (B) B BP A C Real income y1 y2

BP Schedule Assume the following dilemma: • full employment income is at Y* • equilibrium level of income is Y2 • equilibrium level of income that satisfies equilibrium in the BP is Y1 . • What should the central bank do?
