n year 2018, the government of Qatar spent is 143 billion Qatari Riyal (the national currency of Qatar). The GDP of Qatar in the same year is 1,121 billion Qatari Riyal. Qatar's desired consumption and desired investment during the year can be summarized by the following equations: Cd=1,000-5,000r Id=800-3000r Where Cd is the desired consumption in billions of Qatari Riyal, Id if the desired investment in billions of Qatari Riyal, and r is the real interest rate in decimal form. What is the equilibrium real interest rate r* in %? round to at least 2 decimal places
National Income: Where It Comes From and Where It Goes — End of Chapter Problem If consumption depends on the interest rate, saving will also depend on it. In particular, the higher the interest rate, the greater will be the return to saving. Hence, the supply of loanable funds will be represented by an upward-sloping, rather than a vertical, curve. National saving is the sum of public saving and private saving. Investment in this analysis is private investment. It does not include public investment.
If consumption expenditures are $1800 million, gross investment is $450 million, imports are $350 million, exports are $180 million, government expenditure on goods and services is $120 million, and government transfer payments are $180 million and net taxes are $250 million; a) How much is the disposable income? b) Calculate the national savings.
b) calculate gross private domestic investment $_______________ trillion (round to one decimal point) c) based on the information given, calculate personal income $____________ trillion (round to one decimal point) calculate personal disposable income $______________trillion (rounded to one decimal point)
