For the next three questions, consider a closed economy with the following information: Economic investment = $6000 Private savings = $4100 Output (income) = $20,000 Consumption = $11,000 This economy has no transfer payments; in other words, total taxes and "net taxes" are the same thing. calculate this economy's government purchases (G). calculate this economy's public savings. calculate this economy's taxes (T). Note that there are no transfer payments.

1. Answer the following: A) In 2011 the United States economy had a GDP of $14,991 billion according to the United Nations. If consumption was $10,729 billion, government spending was $2,594 billion, and net exports was -$568 billion, how much was investment spending? B) In 2011 the United States economy had a GDI (Gross Domestic Income) of approximately $13,548 billion according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. If wages were $8,340 billion, interest payments were $516 billion, and rent was $430 billion, approximately how much was remaining for profit?

Briefly discuss the following concepts iv. Government expenditure multiplierv. Potential output
Consider a hypothetical economy. Households spend $0.50 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.50. The multiplier for this economy is . Suppose government purchases, G, in this economy increase by $300 billion. The increase in G will lead to an increase in income, generating an increase in consumption that increases income yet again, and so on. Fill in the following table to show the impact of the change in G on the first two rounds of consumption spending and, eventually, on national income. Note: Use negative signs if numbers are negative. Change in G = $300 billion First Change in Consumption = billion Second Change in Consumption = billion • • • • • • Total Change in Income = billion Now consider the impact of a similar change in taxes. The (absolute value) of the tax multiplier in this question will be ; thus, if taxes change by $300 billion, spending will change by billion. Based on…
