Suppose that the government of Ansonia is experiencing a large budget deficit with fixed government expenditures of G=250 and fixed taxes of T=150. Assume that consumers of Ansonia behave as described in the following consumption function: C=300+0.8(Y−T) Suppose further that investment spending is fixed at 200. Calculate the equilibrium level of GDP in Ansonia. Solve for equilibrium levels of Y, C, and S. Next, assume that the Republican Congress in Ansonia succeeds in reducing taxes by 30 to a new fixed level of 120. Recalculate the equilibrium level of GDP using the tax multiplier. Solve for equilibrium levels of Y, C, and S after the tax cut and check to ensure that the multiplier worked. What arguments are likely to be used in support of such a tax cut? What arguments might be used to oppose such a tax cut? Thank you sososooo much!
The economy of Bananaland can be characterized by Equation 9.3. EQUATION 9.3: C = 2,000 + 0.75Yd T = 200 G = 400 I = 500 If government spending in Bananaland increases by $50, how much will equilibrium output increase?
Create three diagrams for the aggregate expenditures (AE) model for a public closed economy by adding different taxes. For the Diagram #1 suppose: Autonomous Expenditures: $6000; MPC: 0.75 Taxes: $1500;Potential Output: $16500For the Diagram #2 suppose: Autonomous Expenditures: $ 6000; MPC: 0.75;Taxes: $3000;Potential Output: $16500For the Diagram #3 suppose: Autonomous Expenditures: $6000; MPC: 0.75; Taxes: $2500Potential Output: $16500Explain each diagram by determining economic gaps and/or equilibriums. How does an increase in taxes affect GDP? How does a decrease in taxes affect GDP?

Suppose that the government of Uplandia is experiencing a large budget deficit with fixed government expenditures of G=375 and fixed taxes of T= 225. Assume that consumers of Uplandia behave as described in the following consumption function C = 450 + 0.96 (Y - T). Suppose further that investment spending is fixed at 300. a. Calculate the equilibrium level of GDP in Uplandia. Solve for equilibrium levels of Y, C, and S. b. Next, assume that the National Congress in Uplandia succeeds in reducing taxes by 89 to a new fixed level of 136. Recalculate the equilibrium level of GDP using the tax multiplier c. Solve for equilibrium levels of Y, C, and S after the tax cut and check to ensure that the multiplier worked.
If the Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) is .90, estimate the total (multiplied) effect of government purchases/spending of $100B in the economy in terms of its aggregate expenditure (Hint: Multiplier = 1 / 1 – MPC). Calculate the net cumulative change in aggregate expenditure if taxes were cut by $200 billion and MPC is estimated to be .75. What if government expenditure was increased by $200 billion? (Hint: Total change in expenditure = multiplier x new expenditure or spending injection)
Assume that, without taxes, the consumption schedule for an economy is shown below: GDP, Billions Consumption, Billions $100 $120 200 200 300 280 400 360 500 440 600 520 700 600 Graph this consumption schedule and determine the size of the MPC. Assume that a lump-sum (regressive) tax of $10 billion is imposed at all levels of GDP. Calculate the tax rate at each level of GDP. Graph the resulting consumption schedule and compare the MPC and the multiplier with those of the pretax consumption schedule. Now suppose a proportional tax with a 10 percent tax rate is imposed instead of the regressive tax. Calculate and graph the new consumption schedule and note the MPC and the multiplier. Finally, impose a progressive tax such that the tax rate is 0 percent when GDP is $100, 5 percent at $200. 10 percent at $300, 15 percent at $400, and so forth. Determine and graph the new consumption schedule, noting the effect of this tax system…
Please check the solution to (a) and (b) of the following problem for accuracy and elaborate: Given MPC (marginal propensity to consume) = 0.75, if the government implements an expansionary fiscal policy as (a) cutting taxes by $10 billion, then by how much would total spending increase over an infinite period? (b) spending $10 billion, then by how much would total spending increase over an infinite period? MPC = 0.75 Tax multiplier = (-MPC / 1) = (-0.75 / 1 – 0.75) = (-0.75 / 0.25) = -3. (a) Cutting taxes by $10 billion. The total spending increase by (-3) (-$10 billion) = $30 billion. Spending multiplier = (1/1 – MPC) = (1 / 1 – 0.75) = 1 / 0.25 = 4 (b) Spending 1ncrease by 10 billion. The total spending increase by (4) ($10 billion) = $40 billion.
a. Suppose that in an economy with no government, the aggregate expenditurefunction is: AE = 50+0.75Y with an investment level of 100.i. Determine the level of planned expenditure when income is 150.ii. Draw a diagram showing the aggregate expenditure functioniii. What are the levels of autonomous consumption and inducedconsumption at income levels of 150 and 200.b. An open economy with a government sector is in equilibrium. Assume thefollowing:1. Marginal propensity to save = 0.42. Marginal propensity to tax = 0.23. Marginal propensity to import = 0.2i. Solve for the value the government multiplier ii. Determine by how much the equilibrium level of national incomewould fall, if injections in the economy are reduced by Ks.60m.iii. Determine the new level of income if taxes increased by KS. 20c. Propose four reasons why economists should not consider GDP an effectivemeasure of the standard of living in a country.
In the equation AE = $2,000 + 0.8Y, autonomous expenditures are equal to 80 percent of income. [True or False] and EXplain WHY
Equal increases in government spending andtaxes willa. cancel each other out so that the equilibriumlevel of real GDP remains unchanged.b. lead to an equal decrease in the equilibriumlevel of real GDP.c. lead to an equal increase in the equilibriumlevel of real GDP.d. lead to an increase in the equilibrium levelof real GDP output that is larger than theinitial change in government spendingand taxes.
Assume an economy in which:(i) there are no exports and no imports,(ii) investors always want to spend $200 billion, or I = 200,(iii) government spends $500 billion and tax revenue is $200 billion,(iv) consumption is a linear function of disposable income, C=100+0.8Yd Assume that the government eliminates taxes while keeping governmentspending the same. (Thus T = 0 and G = 500.) The economy’s consumption function andinvestment remain unchanged. What is the new equilibrium level of national income?
