    d. encourages both U. S. and foreign residents to buy U. S. assets.

    Explanation:

    The interest rate in a country has influence on the capital of it.

    When the real interest rates in the United States increase, the U. S. assets have higher value so that become attractive to funds. Thus, it encourages both foreign and U. S. residents to buy U. S. assets.

    Besides, when the real interest rate in the U. S. increases, it encourages the U. S residents to save more U. S. assets and discourage them from purchasing foreign assets

    => The net capital inflow in U. S would increase
