Explain the Keynesian, saving-consumption relationship, and interpret consumption and saving functions on a single graph.
Please write down whether the following statements are true or false, and explain your answer very briefly
A)If actual investment is greater than planned investment, inventories increase more than planned.
B)The marginal propensity to consume is the change in consumption expenditure divided by the percentage change in income.
C)Gross domestic product (GDP) is the value of all goods and services produced in an economy over a particular time period.
D)Monetary policy refers to taxation and spending policies implemented by government.
E)In a simple Keynesian model (with lump-sum taxes and a MPC of 0.8), a tax cut of 20 billion TL will have less of an impact on GDP than an increase in government spending of 10 billion TL.
D)When you take 1000 TL from your savings account and deposit it in your checking account, M2 decreases.
F)An open market purchase of government securities (such as Treasury Bills) by the Central Bank will decrease the money supply and raise the interest rate.…
Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.6. Use the Keynesian Cross model to predict the impact on equilibrium income of each of the following policies. State the direction of the change and give a formula for the size of the impact.
a. an increase in government purchases of $100billion
b. an increase in taxes of $100 billion
c. a $100 billion increase in both government purchases and taxes?

If the economy were at full employment (that is, at its natural rate), GDP would be 2,000. Explain the meaning of each of these equations. What is the marginal propensity to consume in this economy? Suppose the central bank’s policy is to adjust the money supply to maintain the interest rate at 4 percent, so r = 4. Solve for GDP. How does it compare to the full-employment level? Assuming no change in monetary policy, what change in government purchases would restore full employment? Assuming no change in fiscal policy, what change in the interest rate would restore full employment?arrow_forward
- Suppose actual real GDP is $13.37 trillion, potential real GDP is $12.33 trillion, and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.62. If we ignore price effects, by how many trillions of dollars should the government change its spending to fix the gap? (Round this to two digits after the decimal and enter this value as either a positive value or a negative value without the dollar sign.)arrow_forwardIn an economy, marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75 where Keynesian model works. Now, if government increases both its expenditure and taxes by 1000, then Income increases by 4000; Income increases by 3000; Income increases by 1000; Income do not change?arrow_forwardThe consumption function macroeconomics is often written as C= a + b(Y-T) where b expresses: a.
