Litzy · Answer 1

(D) their imports exceed their exports.

Explanation:

Trade deficit, simply put is an economic situation whereby a country imports more than it exports.

Trade deficit can be calculated by subtracting the value of goods imported from the value of goods exported. Trade deficit decreases gross domestic profit (GDP). There must be a balance of trade to favour the GDP.
