To calculate the current account balance for 2005, we need to sum up the individual components given in the table. The components are as follows:
- Goods: [tex]\(-\$ 924,179\)[/tex] million
- Services: \[tex]$ 340,471 million
- Income Payments: \$[/tex] 191,400 million
- Unilateral Transfers: [tex]\(-\$ 222,380\)[/tex] million
Let's add these components step by step:
1. Start with Goods:
- Goods = [tex]\(-\$ 924,179\)[/tex]
2. Add Services:
- Goods + Services = [tex]\(-\$ 924,179 + \$ 340,471 = -\$ 583,708\)[/tex]
3. Add Income Payments:
- Previous total + Income Payments = [tex]\(-\$ 583,708 + \$ 191,400 = -\$ 392,308\)[/tex]
4. Add Unilateral Transfers:
- Previous total + Unilateral Transfers = [tex]\(-\$ 392,308 + (-\$ 222,380) = -\$ 614,688\)[/tex]
Therefore, the current account balance for 2005 is:
[tex]\[
-\$ 614,688 \text{ million}
\][/tex]
So, the current account balance for 2005 is:
[tex]\[
\boxed{-614688} \text{ million}
\][/tex]
