- 1. Assume in a simple economy that the level of saving is –500 when aggregate output equals zero and that the marginal propensity to save is 0.2. Derive the saving function and the consumption function, and draw a graph showing these functions. At what level of aggregate output does the consumption curve cross the 45° line? Explain your answer and show this on the graph.2. Use your answer to the previous problem to calculate the MPC, MPS, government spending multiplier, and tax multiplier. Draw a graph showing the data for consumption spending, planned aggregate expenditures, and aggregate output. Be sure to identify the equilibrium point on your graph. Sorry, these two questions are linked. I totally forgot.3. Assume that initially G is $300 and equilibrium real GDP is $5000. If the multiplier is 5, what would be the new equilibrium level of GDP if Government expenditures increase to $600.If Multiplier is 1/1-MPC and MPS+MPC=1, MPC= Marginal propensity to consume and MPS= marginal propensity to save. Using this formula and MPC is 0.9 multiplier is __________ and if MPS =0.4 multiplier is ________________ a 10 and 10 b 1 and 2.5 c 10 and 2.5 d 1.111 and 1.666
- 2. Suppose that consumption equals $500 billion when the disposable income is $0 and that each increase of $100 billion in disposable income causes consumption to increase by $70 billion. a. Draw a graph of the consumption function using this information. The axes must be labeled correctly, and the consumption function should have at least two points on the graph (correct coordinates). b. What is the Marginal Propensity to Consume in this economy? How did you arrive at your answer? Please show your work. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.Table 2 shows elements in the national income accounts of an economy.

Make a graph showing the spending and tax revenue of your state government for as many years as you can find (use the government of your home country if you are not from the United States). What trends do you notice? What spending categories make up the largest share of the state budget? What are the largest sources of revenue?1. If an economy has an MPC of 0.9 what is the multiplier? 2. If an economy has an MPS of 0.2 what is the multiplier? 3. If an economy has an MPC of .08 and the government needs to close a recessionary gap of 20 Billion dollars how much government spending should occur? 4. If an economy has an MPS of .05 and the government needs to close an inflationary gap of 10 Billion dollars how much should government spending decrease?
