• A. 0.35
• B. 4.56
• C. 5.01
• D. 2.57
• E. 5.3

Answer 1

The correct option is E 5.3

Current account balance in 2010 $=\frac{73555.34\times (-3.268)}{100}=-2403.79$
Current account balance in 2005 $=\frac{35662.2\times (-1.272)}{100}=-435.62$
Therefore, the required ratio $=\frac{-2403.79}{-453.62}=5.30$
