Question

  1. when a country has a current account deficit, it is: a net lender to the rest of the world experiencing currency appreciation unable to trade internationally a net borrower from the rest of the world

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A current - account deficit means a country is importing more goods, services, and income than it is exporting. To finance this excess of imports over exports, the country must borrow from the rest of the world. So, it becomes a net borrower from the rest of the world. A net lender would have a current - account surplus. A current - account deficit usually puts downward pressure on the currency (not appreciation), and it doesn't mean the country is unable to trade internationally.

Answer:

D. A net borrower from the rest of the world
