Explain the difference between saving and investment as defined by a macroeconomist. Which of the following situations represent investment and which represent saving? Explain.a. Your family takes out a mortgage and buys a new house.You use your $200 paycheck to buy stock in Africel.Your roommate earns $100 and deposits it in his account at a bank.You borrow $1,000 from a bank to buy a car to use in your pizza delivery business.The interest rate is 7 percent. Use the concept of present value to compare $200 to be received in 10 years and $300 to be received in 20 years.A company has an investment project that would cost $10 million today and yield a payoff of $15 million in 4 years.Should the firm undertake the project if the interest rate is 11 percent? 10 percent? 9 percent? 8 percent?Can you figure out the exact cutoff for the interest rate between profitability and nonprofitability?
Assume an economy with 1000 consumers. Each consumer has income in the current period of 50 units and future income of 60 units, and pays a lump-sum tax of 10 in the current period and 20 in the future period. The market real interest rate is 8%. Of the 1000 consumers, 500 consume 60 units in the future, while 500 consume 20 units in the future. Determine each consumer’s current consumption and current saving. Current Consumption: Current Saving: Determine aggregate private saving, aggregate consumption in each period, government spending in the current and future periods, the current-period government deficit, and the quantity of debt issued by the government in the current period. Aggregate Private Saving Aggregate Consumption Government spending: Current Future Current period government deficit Quantity of debt
Disposable income is the amount a household has A after subtracting autonomous spending. B after subtracting taxes and transfer payments to income. C sometimes called discretionary spending. D available for consumption spending and saving.
