Consider the Aggregate expenditure model. Where:AD = C + I + G + NX (1)where I, G, and NX are all autonomous.C = C + c∗(Y + T R − T A)(2)where T A = tY with t ∈ [0, 1] is the proportional tax rate and c∗ ∈ (0, 1) is themarginal propensity to consume.a. Using the information above, solve for AD. Combineall the autonomous terms into one term, A. b.

Assume that the economy, as represented by the simple Keynesian model, is in equilibrium with income equal to $6 million and consumption spending equal to $5 million. Which of these is correct? O Investment is $1 million. There is no saving in this economy. The economy will go into disequilibrium because consumption is not equal to income. The information provided is insufficient to determine the level of investment spending.
Answer the following questions, which relate to the aggregate expenditures model:a. If Ca is $100, Ig is $50, Xn is -$10, and G is $30, what is the economy’s equilibrium GDP?b. If real GDP in an economy is currently $200, Ca is $100, Ig is $50, Xn is -$10, and G is $30, will the economy’s real GDP rise, fall, or stay the same?c. Suppose that full-employment (and full-capacity) output in an economy is $200. If Ca is $150, Ig is $50, Xn is -$10, and G is $30, what will be the macroeconomic result?
Suppose that the federal government decides to reduce the budget deficit and cuts government purchases by $200 billion and raise personal income taxes by $200 billion. Suppose the MPC = .5. How much and in which direction would the AD curve shift because of the government spending cut? Show your work. How much and in which direction would the AD curve shift because of the tax increase? Show your work. (Note: we know these numbers in parts A & B are not accurate quantitative assessments of the policy actions - but the exercise allows us to think about the mechanisms through which these policy actions will affect the economy.) Using the above numbers, draw the AS-AD diagram and illustrate the short-run impact of the combined policy action assuming the economy begins at potential output. Label the original equilibrium with point "A" and the new short-run equilibrium with point "B". Be sure to label the magnitude of the curve shift. Describe the impact of the policy action on…
