10.14 Total economic output in three years. The n - vector xt denotes the economic output of a country in n different sectors, in yeart. An economist models the economic output using a linear dynamical system model xt+1 = Axt, where A is an n \times n matrix. Assuming her model is correct, find an expression for the total economic output in yeart + 3, in terms of xt and A. (The total economic output is the sum of the economic output in the n sectors.)

Assume that the average or mean monthly household consumption expenditure for Malaysia rose from RM3,578 in 2018 to RM4,033 in 2020, growing 6% per annum at nominal value, according to the statistics department. However, in terms of real value — which refers to the constant price using the Consumer Price Index with the base year 2014 as the deflator — annual growth rate is 3.9% for the same period, mentioned on its Household Expenditure Survey Report 2020. b) i. Use the aggregate expenditures model to show how government fiscal policy could eliminate either a recessionary expenditure gap or an inflationary expenditure gap. ii. Explain how equal-size increases in G and T could eliminate a recessionary gap and how equal-size decreases in G and T could eliminate an inflationary gap.

Assume that the average or mean monthly household consumption expenditure for Malaysia rose from RM3,578 in 2018 to RM4,033 in 2020, growing 6% per annum at nominal value, according to the statistics department. However, in terms of real value — which refers to the constant price using the Consumer Price Index with the base year 2014 as the deflator — annual growth rate is 3.9% for the same period, mentioned on its Household Expenditure Survey Report 2020. a) Suppose that consumer spending initially rises by RM5 billion for every 1 percent rise in household wealth and that investment spending initially rises by RM20 billion for every 1 percentage point fall in the real interest rate. Also, assume that the economy’s multiplier is 4. i. If household wealth falls by 5 percent because of declining house values, and the real interest rate falls by two percentage points, in what direction and by how much will the aggregate demand curve initially shift at each price level? ii.

Let the national-income model be: Y = C + I0 + G C= a+b +b(Y - T) (a > 0, 0 < b < 1) G = gY (0 < g < 1) Consider the national-income model found above. Provide a general equilibrium solution for each endogenous variable (Y, C, G) as a formula of the parameters given. Create a numerical example by selecting and justifying a set of parameters that are close to real estimates for the US economy of $19 trillion GDP.
Given that E = C +I , derive a function for Y in terms of t for each of the following macroeconomic models and then use it to predict Y when t is 10.
Question 3: National Income Determination Model Consider the following three-sector national income determination model assuming equilibrium in the economy: C = 20 + 0.85 (Y − T) T = 25 + 0.25Y I = 155 G = 100 Determine the exogenous and endogenous variables in the system. Solve the model presented in the above system of equations using the matrix inverse and the Crammer’s rule for the equilibrium values of the unknown variables. Verify your solution in part (2) above by solving these simultaneous equations.
The national income model for an economy is represented as follows (units are in Ksh.M) Y = C + I + G + X – M I = 320 + 0.20Y G = 980 C = 540 + 0.80Y M = 640 + 0.25Y X = 850 Y = National income; C = Consumption; I = Investment; G = government spending; X = Exports; and M = Imports.

Read the following extract and answer questions?South Africa’s economy grew by 1.1% in the first quarter of the year Stats SA has published the latest gross domestic product (GDP) data covering the first quarter of the year, showing that the economy grew by 1.1% in the first three months of 2021.The growth follows a revised 1.4% rise in real GDP in the fourth quarter of 2020. On an annualised basis, theeconomy grew 4.6% quarter-on-quarter. Following confusion caused by the annualisation of GDP data in 2020 – amid the Covid-19 pandemic andresulting lockdowns – Stats SA said it would no longer use the annualised data as the headline GDP statistic. During periods of steady economic growth, annualising is a useful way of expressing quarter-on-quarterperformance in annual terms, Stats SA said. However, during periods of economic instability, annualising can be misleading, because it exaggerates growth rates that are unlikely to be repeated. Given the information about the South African…
If the annual rate of world oil consumption t years after 1970 is modeledby the equation R(t) = 16.1e^.07t (billions of barrels per year), how much total oil (net change) was used between 1976 and 1980?
Consider a macroeconomy where the current population is 800 thousand people. Gross domestic private investment is constant $2500 million while consumer expenditure is described by the equation: C = 580+ 0.8DI. The government is fairly active, with a total expenditure of $2000 million and net taxes of $2550 million. Further investigation of the macroeconomy reveals that imports are constant at $3000 million while exports are constant at $2500 million. Currently, the overall price level (GDP deflator) is 118 and the potential GDP level is $13.5 billion. What is the current equilibrium level of real GDP? (report your answer at 2 decimal places and in millions of dollars) 1. What is the current equilibrium level of real GDP 2. what is the current real GDP per capita? 3. what is the value gap?
Refer to the statement below and answer the following questions: Chief statistician Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Uzir Mahidin said Malaysia is expected to continue recording a slower economic growth in 2Q 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, based on the near-term economic direction portrayed by the Leading Index (LI) for the reference month of February 2020. Mohd Uzir said GDP growth for 1Q 2020, meanwhile, was dragged by negative growth across all sectors except for services and manufacturing which grew 3.1% and 1.5% respectively. "Private final consumption expenditure in this quarter was on essential products such as food and non-alcoholic beverage, communication and housing, water, electricity and other fuels," he said in a statement on Malaysia's economic performance in 1Q 2020, today. He added that the Movement Control Order (MCO), which began on March 18, has resulted in lower household expenditure, which in turn, directly affected the industries related to food and beverage,…
