Assume that in 2015, the following prevails in theRepublic of Nurd:Y = $200 G = $0C = $160 T = $0S = $40I (planned) = $30Assume that households consume 80 percent of their income, they save 20 percent of their income, MPC = 0.8,and MPS = 0.2. That is, C = 0.8Yd and S = 0.2Yd.a. Is the economy of Nurd in equilibrium? What is Nurd’sequilibrium level of income? What is likely to happen inthe coming months if the government takes no action?b. If $200 is the “full-employment” level of Y, what fiscal policy might the government follow if its goal is fullemployment?c.
