Answer:

Hilary gets a new video camera made in the United States. ⇒ Consumption .

It is bought for personal use in the United States so falls under the consumption of the U.S.

Kevin buys a new set of tools to use in his plumbing business. ⇒ Investment.

This is investment because it was bought to improve the reduction capacity of the business.

The state of Pennsylvania repaves highway PA 320, which goes  through the center of Swarthmore. ⇒ Government Purchases (G).

The state of Pennsylvania paid for this so it is government expenditure.

Edison buys a sweater made in Guatemala. ⇒ Imports (M).

The sweater was imported into the U.S. from Guatemala so falls under imports.

Edison's employer assigns him to provide consulting services to  an Australian firm that's opening a manufacturing facility in China. ⇒ Exports.

Edison's skills are being sent to Australia and China indirectly so they represent exports as they are being sent out of the country.
