Assume that GDP (Y) is 6,500, which is also the full employment level of real GDP. Consumption (C) is given by C = 750 + 0.75(Y – T). Investment (I) is given by the equation I = 2000 – 200r, whereris the rate of interest in percent. Taxes (T) are 500 and government spending (G) is 500. The world interest rate (r*) is equal to 4 percent. Use the data above to calculate: Consumption and National Saving Assuming domestic firms can borrow or lend as much as they want at the world rate of interest, Investment = Therefore, net foreign investment = and net exports : %3D Do these numbers imply that this country is a net lender or a net debtor? Do these numbers imply that this country has a trade surplus or a trade deficit? If government uses an expansionary fiscal policy, will the national saving function shift right or left?
