Suppose that autonomous consumption (a) is 200, private investment spending (I) is 340, government spending (G) is 300, Net taxes (T) are 300 and marginal propensity to consume (b) is 80 %, and marginal tax rate (t) is 25 %. By using the above information: a) Find the equilibrium value of national income (you can take the approximate value if necessary b) Find out the effects of an increase in government expenditure by100  c)  Just find the new national income equilibrium level when the marginal tax rate is increased to 30 % and the marginal propensity to consume is increasing to 0.9.  (you can give the numerical value approximately )
