1. Define marginal propensity to consume. Explain its relationship with marginal propensity to save. 2. Distinguish between MPC and APC. 3. Estimate the marginal propensity to consume in an economy in which the aggregate consumption expenditure from k400 000 to 500 000. 4.define the multiplier. Apart from income generation via the multiplier process, what other important role does investment play in an underdeveloped economy? Define inflation. With the help of diagrams bring out the distinction between cost push and demand pull inflation. Are the economic effects of inflation identical for all sections of society. Discuss giving comprehensive examples. Using the IS- LM model, discuss how equilibrium is attained in the money and products market distinctively, to arrive at the general level of equilibruim in an economy. What happens to interest rates as prices change along a given AD schedule? Explain using the IS - LM model. Explain the fixed and flexible exchange rates. What is the…

(b) With the help of a diagram, explain the effect of an increase in nominal income on interest rate.
Assume certain coutory economy consumption function =200+0.75(Y-T) given government purchase and Tax are 100 and investment function =100-25r real money demand =25y-100r money supply =1000 then find equilibrium income and interest rate when government purpose increase by 80 percent and tax increase by 70 percent draw IS and LM curve and by how much they shift ?
3. Derive the expression for government purchase multiplier in Keynesian model. If the value of G multiplier = 2.55 How do you interpret this? Explain with Graph. Apply your own understanding (based on Book N. GREGORY MANKIW 7th Edition) Not more than 13 sentence
Suppose the government borrows $20 billion more next year than this year. a. Use a supply-and-demand diagram to analyse this policy. Does the interest rate rise or fall? b. What happens to investment? To private saving? To public saving? To national saving? Compare the size of the changes to the $20 billion of extra government borrowing. c. Suppose households believe that greater government borrowing today implies higher taxes to pay off the government debt in the future. What does this belief do to private saving and the supply of loanable funds today? Does it increase or decrease the effects that you discussed in parts (a) and (b)?
13) Which of the following is NOT an implication of Ricardian equivalence?a) Tax cuts have no effect on national saving. b) The present value of future tax increases equal the current tax cut. c) Tax cuts do not make increase the welfare of consumers. d) The amount of private saving does not change.
(a) Suppose in a simple Keynesian economy, planned consumption function is given by C=250+0.65(Y-T). Planned investment, government purchases, taxes are $100 million, $100 million and $150 million respectively. What is MPC, MPS and autonomous consumption Derive the saving function. What is the equilibrium level of income? Y= AD=C+I+G If government purchases increase to $150 million, what is the new equilibrium level of income? What level of government purchases is needed to achieve an income of $2000 million? From question e) you get the newly government purchase. Now find out the multiplier value What is the amount of shift in AD curve? [Use the multiplier value from e)] (b) In a self-regulating economy “X”, labor supply is 40 million but labor demand is 10 million. What will happen in goods and service market simultaneously?
