Assume there is a decrease in the aggregate demand, if expansionary fiscal policy is being used, the following action could be taken a. increase consumption by raising disposable income through cuts in personal taxes or payroll taxes b. increasing government spending by raising after-tax profits through cuts in business taxes c. increase government purchases through increased Federal Government spending on final goods and services and raising grants to state and local government to increase their expenditures on final goods and services d. All of the above
How do the instances when expansionary fiscal policy should be used compare with those for contractionary fiscal policy? Expansionary fiscal policy should be used during recessions to help build the economy and contractionary fiscal policy should be used when there is high inflation. Expansionary fiscal policy should be used to increase government revenue and contractionary fiscal policy should be used to increase consumer spending. Expansionary fiscal policy should be used to combat high inflation and contractionary fiscal policy should be used to increase government revenue. Expansionary fiscal policy should be used to decrease the unemployment rate and contractionary fiscal policy should be used when economic growth is too fast.
Assuming you are the Minister of Finance and Economic Planning for Nigeria, in charge of Fiscal Policy. The Research Director of the Ministry brought you the following data on Nigeria’s for the previous fiscal year, 2021. An examination of the data reveals that, during the fiscal year 2021, households in Nigeria saved 20% of their disposable income (Yd) and spent the rest on consumption. In addition, ₦5,000.00 was spent on Consumption expenditure (C), which is independent of income and Gross Private Investment (I) was ₦ 7,000.00. Total Government expenditure (G) which stood at ₦8,000.00 was supposed to be financed by a lump sum tax of ₦2,000.00 (independent of income) and a proportional tax rate of 25% of national income. Exports (X) stood at ₦2,500.00. In addition, the country’s import (M) during the previous fiscal year comprises of ₦1,000.00 which was independent of the country’s national income and 10% which was dependent of the country’s national income. Given these data on…
Refer to the above diagram. The economy is at equilibrium at point C. What fiscal policy would increase real GDP? Group of answer choices Increase aggregate demand from AD2 to AD1 by decreasing taxes. Decrease aggregate demand from AD2 to AD3 by increasing taxes. Increase aggregate demand from AD1 to AD2 by increasing government spending. Make no change because the economy is at or near its full-employment level of real output.
Suppose in our two-period model of the economy that the government, instead of borrowing in the current period, runs a government loan program. That is, loans are made to consumers at the market real interest rate r, with the aggregate quantity of loans made in the current period denoted by L. Government loans are financed by lump-sum taxes on consumers in the current period, and we assume that government spending is zero in the current and future periods. In the future period, when the government loans are repaid by consumers, the government rebates this amount as lump-sum transfers (negative taxes) to consumers. We use the same notation as in the lecture notes (y, y′ , c, c′ ,t, t′ , s, T, T′ ). Also, we use l ≡ L/n to represent the size of the loan that each individual consumer takes from the loan program, where n is the population. 1) Write down the government’s current-period budget constraint and its future-period budget constraint. 2) Determine the present-value budget…
Suppose actual real GDP is $13.56 trillion, potential real GDP is $12.34 trillion, and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.74. If we ignore price effects, and if the government already decided to increase its spending by $1.90 trillion, by how many trillions of dollars should the government change its lump sum taxes to fix the gap? (Round this to two digits after the decimal and enter this value as either a positive value or a negative value without the dollar sign.)
The federal government implements an expansionary fiscal policy of increased spending and decreased taxes. Policy advisors predict output will increase 4% but are surprised when only 3% growth occurs. What might account for the fact that GDP increased by less than the multiplier predicted? a. Policy advisors' calculation of MPS was too high b. The aggregate supply curve was perfectly elastic c. Foreign purchases of domestic goods was greater than expected due to a devalued currency d. Consumption increases more than expected because of the decrease in taxes e. Investment decreased due to rising interest rates
