1. Suppose a closed economy hasnational income of $50 million,Investment of $2 million,Inflation rate of 5%, net tax rateof 15% and a budget surplus of$4 million. Find value of government purchases (G).
National Income: Where It Comes From and Where It Goes — End of Chapter Problem If consumption depends on the interest rate, saving will also depend on it. In particular, the higher the interest rate, the greater will be the return to saving. Hence, the supply of loanable funds will be represented by an upward-sloping, rather than a vertical, curve. National saving is the sum of public saving and private saving. Investment in this analysis is private investment. It does not include public investment.
Aggregate Variables Value (in billions of dollars) in the base year Consumption spending $900 Investment spending $400 Government spending $200 Transfer payments $60 The marginal propensity to save is equal to 0.4 and there are no exports or imports, (a) Calculate the real GDP in this country, Show your work (b) Calculate the marginal propensity to consume Show your work. (c) Suppose that the government increases spending from $200 billion to $300 billion (i) Calculate the maximum change in real GDP. Show your work (ii) Given the change in real GDP in part (c)(i), calculate the maximum level of the new equilibrium real GDP. Show your work (d) Suppose that taxes decrease by $100 billion. Will the maximum change in real GDP be larger than, smaller than, or equal to the change in part (c)(i)? Explain.
Given the following consumption function, C = 400 + 0.75YD,where C= consumption expenditure, YD = disposable income, Investment= $1200, Government spending = $1600,Exports = $500, Imports = $600, Taxes = $1200 and Potential GDP = $9000Choose corrcct optiona) Aactual output is less than potential outputb) actual output is zeroc) actual output is equal to potential outputd) actual output is higher than potential output
2. In macroeconomic theory, total or aggregate spending is denoted by A and total or aggregateproduction of income by Y. Which one of the following statements is incorrect? A When A is greater than Y, there is disequilibrium and Y will tend to increase.B When A is equal to Y, there is equilibrium and Y will remain unchanged.C When A is less than Y, there is disequilibrium and Y will decrease.D When A is greater than Y, there is disequilibrium and A will decrease.
3. Derive the expression for government purchase multiplier in Keynesian model. If the value of G multiplier = 2.55 How do you interpret this? Explain with Graph. Apply your own understanding (based on Book N. GREGORY MANKIW 7th Edition) Not more than 13 sentence
5. The economy of a country is a three-sector economy. Its public consumption follows the function: C 400+ 0.8Yd. Realized investment reached IDR 250 trillion, government spending amounted to IDR 700 trillion, transfer payments to the public amounted to IDR 100 trillion and tax revenues amounted to IDR 300 trillion. Determine: a. Equilibrium national income b. Balance consumption c. Savings balance Please solve subparts a,b,c thank u
5. The government of an economy has increased its spending and its taxes by the same amount. i) What is the effect on investment? Use loanable funds market framework to illustrate your answer graphically and explain in words. ii) Does higher marginal propensity to consume amplify this effect or not? Explain your answer analytically. 2nd time submitting as a post, please answer this problem fully and explain work. Please answer graphically and use words as prescribed Please explain results fully. Use graph please as well. The first time I submitted this I was given a partial answer that I believe to be inaccurate for merely half the problem and that used no graph. Macmillan macroeconomics textbook is a good reference.
