Suppose that the typical consumer has a salary of $30,000 in 2017. His salary grows by 2% per year. What can we say about his ability to pay for his consumption basket over time? (A) He can never pay for his consumption basket without going into debt. (B) In 2017 and 2018, he can pay for his own consumption, but will be unable to in 2019 and 2020 without taking on debt. (C) From 2017-2019, he can pay for his own consumption, but will be unable to in 2020 without taking on debt. (D) He can always pay for his own consumption basket without taking on debt.
Consider an economy called Xanadu for which desired aggregate consumptiondepends on income, Y. and the real interest rate, r, according toCd =100+0.7Y - 200r.Xanadu's GDP is Y = 1000 and government spending on goods and services is G=180. Xanadu's desired future capital stock is given byK* = 140 - 100ucwhere luCdenotes the user-cost of capital. The price of capital is PK =2, thephysical depreciation rate is d =0.1 and the existing capital stock is K0= 50. Trapital stock between any period t and the following period t+1 evolves accordng toKt+1 = It+(1-d)Kt where It the level of investment. Assume throughout that net factor payments from abroad (NFP) is equal to zero.Suppose instead that Xanadu is a small open economy facing a world interest rate of 1%. It follows that Xanadu's current account position is equal toA) -16B) -51C) -6D) -8
The following table shows data for the economy before the decrease in saving. Suppose that the decrease in saving causes consumption to rise from $280 million to $320 million. Assume Say's law holds in this economy. Fill in the data for the economy after the decrease in saving. Before Saving Decrease After Saving Decrease Consumption (C) $280 million $320 million Investment (I) $200 million $ million Government Purchases (G) $250 million $ million Exports (EX) $500 million $500 million Imports (IM) $300 million $300 million As a result of the decrease in saving, total expenditures will .
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
