ADVANCED ANALYSIS Assume that the consumption schedule for a private open economy is such that consumption is: C = 100 + 0.75Y Assume further that planned investment Ig and net exports Xn are independent of the level of real GDP and constant at Ig = 60 and Xn = 10. Recall also that, in equilibrium, the real output produced (Y) is equal to aggregate expenditures: Y = C + Ig + Xn Instructions: Round your answers to the nearest whole number.a. What is the equilibrium level of income or real GDP for this economy? Equilibrium GDP (Y) = $ . b. What happens to equilibrium Y if Ig changes to 40? Equilibrium GDP (Y) = $ . What does this outcome reveal about the size of the spending multiplier? Spending multiplier = .
What is a foreign exchange rate? (a) The rate at which the currency of one country trades for the goods ofanother country.(b) The rate at which one country’s goods trade for those of another country.(c) The rate at which currencies of different countries are exchanged.(d) The rate at which one country’s currency trades for gold provided byanother country. Induced consumption is: (a) the part of consumption which is independent of the level of income.(b) the minimum level of consumption that is financed from sources other than income.(c) The maximum level of consumption that is financed from sources other than income.(d) shown by the slope of the consumption function. In the Keynesian model, an introduction of a proportional tax will: (a) increase the slope of the consumption function.(b) reduce the multiplier.(c) increase the equilibrium level of income.(d) increase the multiplier. A decrease in the price level will: (a) shift the AS curve to the left.(b) shift the AD curve to the…

Suppose U.S. drivers purchased $50 billion of ExxonMobil-produced gasoline during a recent year, with one-half purchased directly from ExxonMobil-owned gas stations and one-half from independent (or third-party) gas stations. Suppose further that ExxonMobil purchased the oil (which it refined into gasoline) from foreign producers for $20billion and that it receives 60 percent of the sales revenue that independent stations generate from selling ExxonMobil gasoline. In this case, the value added by ExxonMobil to U.S. GDP is $__billion.

Suppose that in Zambia, people consume only two goods, peas and beans. Suppose that John, a citizen in that country has an income of ZMW10, the price of beans is 20N per kg and the price of peas is 40N per kg. Suppose that John consumes 30 kg of beans. Assume that he wants to spend all his income, how many kg of peas is he going to consume? Assume that the price of peas falls from 40N to 20N. Assuming that John still consumes 30kg of beans, find the new quantity of peas. After the decrease in the price of peas to 20N, assume that Jonh is just as well off as he was in (a) if he has an income of ZMW7.6. However, with that income and the new price of peas he would have consumed 20 kg of beans. Find the quantity of peas he would have consumed in this case. Find the substitution effect on consumption of peas due to the decrease in the price of peas in (c). Find the income effect on consumption of peas due to the decrease in income in (c). Question d and e to be solved
