Explanation:

A current account is that account which includes the exports, imports, net income come from abroad, receipts and payments, net current transfers, etc.

The exports - imports is called the balance of trade

In mathematically,

Exports - imports = balance of trade

According to the above meaning, the following transactions would be considered as a current account

1: Interest paid by a Country B's corporation on a bond owned by a Country A's bank Amount = $1'000

2: Interest paid by Country A's government on a treasury bill owned by Country C's government Amount = $2'000

3: Country A imports of coffee from Country B Amount = $3'000

These transactions would be considered as a current account. Other ones should be ignored
