I need help to complete below homework: Q-3) Consider a closed classical economy where the government increases taxes by $800million. If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75, describe what happens to thefollowing. Please be sure to indicate the magnitude of any change .

Suppose the government must increase taxes in order to increase spending. Now assume Congress wants to increase spending on education without decreasing spending somewhere else. For each variable state if it will INCREASE, DECREASE or REMAIN UNCHANGED. In at least one complete sentence state WHY this change will occur. Be specific. Private Saving (Sp): Consumption: (C) Government Saving (Sg) Total Saving: (S) Real Interest Rates: (r) Investment: (I)
Suppose the following equations represents a closed economy: Y= C + I + G Y = 4000 G = 500 T = 500 C = 500 + 0.7 (Y – T) I = 1000 – 40r In this economy, compute the value of consumption (C), private saving, public saving, and national saving. Also, find the equilibrium interest rate (r). Now suppose that government spending (G) rises (expansionary fiscal policy) to 300. Compute private saving, public saving, and national saving. Also, find the new equilibrium interest rate (r). In part (b), due to expansionary fiscal policy (increase in government spending), which of the two other components of aggregate demand changes, C or I? Why? (Hint: Note the real interest rate)
Assume that GDP ( y) is 6.000. Consumption (C) is given by the equation C= 600 + 06(Y-T). Investment (I )is given by the equation I=2,000- 100r, where r is the real rate of interest in percent. Taxes (T) are government spending (G) is also 500 a. What are the equilibrium values of C, I, and r? b) What are the values of private saving, public saving, and national saving? ·

Consider an economy described by the following equations: Y = C + I + G AND, Y = 20,000; G = 4,000; T = 4,000; C = 1000 + 0.80(Y − T); : I= 2,500 – 120r. national saving AND the equilibrium real interest rate equal: Select one: a. national saving 2200 AND the equilibrium real interest rate 2.5%. b. national saving 2500,AND the equilibrium real interest rate 2%. c. national saving 4000 AND the equilibrium real interest rate 1.5%. d. national saving 3200 AND the equilibrium real interest rate 2.5%.
