- How would a dramatic increase in the value of the stock market shift the AD curve? What effect would the shift have on the equilibrium level of GDP and the price level?The table below gives some of the items in the U.S. National Income and ProductAccounts in 1995.ItemAmount(trillions ofdollars)Consumption expenditure 4.97Investment 1.14Government expenditures 1.37Net exports 0.08Wages 4.20Interest, rent, and profit 1.68Depreciation 0.89a) Use the expenditure approach to calculate U.S. GDP in 1995.b) Use the income approach to calculate U.S. net domestic product at factor cost inDetermine aggregate expenditures (AE) in this economy when real GDP (Y) is equal to $1,500 billion, $2,000 billion, and $2,500 billion.When Y = $1,500 billion, AE = billion .When Y = $2,000 billion, AE = billion . When Y = $2,500 billion, AE = billion .
- Consider an economy similar to that in the preceding question in which investment is also $200, government purchases are also $500, net exports are also $30, and the price level is also fixed. But taxes now vary with income and, as a result, the consumption schedule looks like the following: GDP Taxes DI C $1,360 $320 $1,040 $810 1,480 360 1,120 870 1,600 400 1,200 930 1,720 440 1,280 990 1,840 480 1,360 1,050 Find the equilibrium graphically. What is the marginal propensity to consume? What is the tax rate? Use your diagram to show the effect of a decrease of $60 in government purchases. What is the multiplier? Compare this answer to your answer to Test Yourself Question 1. What do you conclude? GDP…The graph models an economy in equilibrium with a real GDP of $180 billion. Suppose that consumers' expectations about future incomes change, causing unplanned inventory investment to increase by $30 billion. Shift the planned aggregate expenditure (AE) line to show the effect of this change. *Image* 1) This change will cause the equilibrium level of real GDP to a) decrease. b) remain unchanged. c) increase. 2) By how much will GDP change once the new equilibrium is reached? If GDP will decrease, be sure to include a negative sign. GDP change: $ ________ billionThe first basic piece in the aggregate expenditures model is: O the expenditure schedule. O the demand schedule. O the supply schedule. O the consumption schedule
- Explain, in detail, how the adjustment to macroeconomic equilibrium occurs when spending is less than production. Be sure to discuss how inventories play a crucial role in the adjustment process. State what happens to GDP and employment during the adjustment process.Which components of Aggregate Expenditure change as a result of a change in real GDP? Question 3Answer a. consumption, investment, and exports b. consumption and investment c. consumption, investment, and government expenditures d. consumption and governments e. consumption and importsAssume taxes are zero and an economy has a consumption function of C = 0.81 (Yd) + $707.13. By how much will consumption change if disposable income in the economy changes by -447? Round your answer to two digits after the decimal and be sure to provide a negative sign if consumption decreases.
- Calculate the national income equilibrium of country Y using information below a）Country Y is a three sector economy b) Autonomous consumption is 320million with the proportion of increase income spent on comsumption 0.6 c) Induced tax of 20% imposed by country d) Investment 200million e) government spending 100million Question 2 Based on the above answer show the aggregate expenditure graph Question 3 What happen if that was a change of investment by RM 200millionConsider a national income model as: Y= C + I0 + G Y= National Income C= (Planned) Consumption Expenditure I0= Investment G= Government Expenditure Consider Y= 20trillion, G= 4.2trillion, I0= 3.8 trillion. Explain the key elements missing from the National Income model. Add a new endogenous variable to represent that missing element or endogenize one of the exogenous variables to address this issue. C= a+ b(Y-T0) (a>0, 0<b<1) G= gY (0<g<1)Assume an economy has a consumption function of C = 0.60 (Yd) + $856.02. Additionally, this economy has investment spending = $421.91, government purchases = $224.77, taxes = $192.45, exports = $193.13, and imports = $249.19. What is the equilibrium level of GDP based on this information? Round your answer to two digits after the decimal.
