Indicate how each of the following international transactions is entered into the Canadian balance of payments with double-entry bookkeeping. Your records should include a description of the transaction being recorded, which specific account is affected (e.g., export, home financial account asset, etc.), and the accompanying credit/debit entry. Example: A Canadian airplane manufacturer imports $5 million in parts from a U.S. firm. It uses a Canadian bank account to pay for the parts. a) An Italian tourist charges $450 to his Mastercard (issued by an Italian bank) for a hotel room in Jasper, Alberta, Canada. b) A Chinese catering company purchases $200,000 worth of helium tanks from a Canadian welding firm. The Chinese catering company uses deposits from a bank in China. c) A French firm forgives a $250,000 loan to a firm located in the town of Lac-Mégantic, Quebec, following a deadly rail accident. d) Canada donates $10 million in medical and food supplies to Ukraine following a month-long war.
